Tripod measurements for the Belgian part of The North Sea Citation Contact:
Belgisch Marien Data Centrum (IRScNB/KBIN-BMDC), more Availability: The data can be made available upon request, please use contact information. Description Since 2004 the OD Nature has regularly taken measurements on the bed of the Belgian Continental Shelf, using a tripod measuring frame. This frame is fitted with a series of oceanographic sensors:
-current velocimeters such as an Acoustic Doppler Profiler (ADP) and an Acoustic Doppler Velocimeter (ADV),
-a CT-sensor which records temperature and salinity,
-optical (Optical Backscatter Sensors - OBS) and acoustic backscatter sensors (ADP, ADV and AquaScat) which measure the concentration of suspended sediment,
-an LISST 100x and an AquaScat which measure the size of particles in suspension,
-an instrument for passive acoustic monitoring of cetaceans (C-PoD)
-an instrument for passive sampling for chemical monitoring.
