Ningaloo Reef Circulation Study, Western Australia (1997): Current meter/Wave gauge deployments
Four InterOcean S4 Current Meter/Wave Gauges were deployed during the Ningaloo Reef Circulation StudySite 3: Deployment 1 (S/N 626): -21.8099, 114.0811 (In gap between reefs, on 3m tower)Deployed 29/11/97: Recovered 5/12/97. Depth: approximately 7m below surfaceSite 3: Deployment 2 (S/N 012): -21.8099, 114.0811 (In gap between reefs, on 3m tower)Deployed 5/12/97: Recovered 11/12/97. Depth: approximately 7m below surfaceSite 7: Deployment 1 (S/N 058): -21.808767, 114.083283 (Reef top of northern reef)Deployed 28/11/97: Recovered 4/12/97. Depth: 1.5mSite 7: Deployment 2 (S/N 058): -21.808767, 114.083283 (Reef top of northern reef)Deployed 4/12/97: Recovered 11/12/97.
