Oceanographic
Data
The field team at Coastal Systems International, Inc. has
deployed a variety of oceanographic instruments over the
years in support of coastal engineering studies.
Two submersible wave gauges are maintained in-house
to measure directional waves, currents and tides. Current
velocimeters are also deployed regularly to obtain tidal
current velocities for calibrating coastal/hydrodynamic
numerical models.
Two electronic tide gauges are available for use in
conjunction with hydrographic surveys or flushing analysis.
Gauges for turbidity, salinity, pH and temperature can
also be utilized as part of comprehensive environmental
impact assessments.
