A meteorological buoy system for Great Lakes studies / Floyd C. Elder and Bryan Brady.: En36-503/71E-PDF
"A buoy-mounted instrument system for making meteorological measurements over large lakes has been developed. The system consists of a toroidal buoy of expanded styrafoam; sensors for measurement of air temperature, wind speed and direction, relative humidity, atmospheric pressure, solar radiation, and near-surface water temperature. The recording system is self-contained and capable of recording up to 40 days of data at 10-munute observation intervals on magnetic tape in digital format. Laboratory and over-lake evaluations indicate that data of accuracies comparable to standard network meteorological observations are obtainable"--Abstract, p. v.
