The instrument returns temperature, salinity as a function of depth, and latitude/longitude. Purpose: Characterization of near-surface seawater properties, in conjunction with measurements of circulation and waves and profiles of resistivity on the shoreline will be used to assess the potential for terrestrial groundwater intrusion on the reef and the sources and fate of these water masses.
