Image Of the Day caption:
WHOI physical oceanographer John Toole and engineering assistants Brian Hogue and Andy Davies (left to right) recover a moored cage-mounted Modular Acoustic Velocity Sensor (MAVS) and adjacent SBE MicroCat instrument during the final Line W cruise in the spring of 2014. The instruments are used on mooring lines to record, respectively, the speed and direction of currents and conductivity, temperature and depth every few minutes during deployments. For the past decade, moored instruments and shipboard measurements have monitored the flow of water north with the Gulf Stream and south with the Deep Western Boundary Current, both of which play a role in regional and global climate patterns.
