Buoy systems during the PGGE

The data quality, impact, and application of various buoy systems deployed during the FGGE are discussed. Three general categories of buoy systems provided critical coverage of environmental phenomena in the Arctic Ocean basin, the tropical oceans, and the Southern Hemisphere. Results of the added p...
