Handling of a large dataset: application of Time Series Analysis to oceanographic studies
This paper describes the application of the specific Time Series Analysis techniques (TSA), Autocorrelation analysis (AC), Crosscorrelation analysis (CC) and Power Spectral Density (PSD) to elaborate a large set of oceanographic data, such as marine pressure, flow and current. The data were collected by ad hoc oceanographic instrumentations in two different sites of the Italian seas as digitised ...

Cape Cod Times article on McLane’s Global Footprint
The Cape Cod Times has published an article on McLane’s exports of its profilers, samplers, and flotation around the world. Recently, the Small Business Administration (SBA) had selected McLane Research Laboratories, Inc. as 2017 Exporter of the Year for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The article included a video of a McLane Moored Profiler descending our 50 ft test tank. Sean F. ...

Use of marine outfalls in wastewater disposal
Global experience has shown that disposing of properly treated domestic wastewater through effective ocean outfalls is an economical and reliable strategy for wastewater disposal with minimal environmental impact. Better construction techniques, such as tunnelling, coupled with improved materials mean that the technology of marine wastewater disposal has advanced rapidly in recent years. ...

A Compact, Low-Power In-Situ Flow Analyzer for Marine Applications
A New Tool for In-Situ Analysis is Implemented On an Automated Buoy in the Mediterranean Sea Continuous monitoring of highly dynamic systems like coastal waters requires frequent sampling in a precise place in order to catch short-term events that might have a strong impact on the ecosystem, such as exceptional phytoplankton blooms or changes caused by storms. The lack of monitoring systems that ...

Linear Conversion of Conductivity To Salinity
Disclaimer: This article covers an equation for linear scaling of conductivity sensors to estimate salinity based on the Practical Salinity Scale of 1978 (PSS-78). The equation effectively estimates seawater salinity between the practical salinity ranges of 22 and 42, temperatures 5-35°C, and pressure less than 200 dBar, using a temperature-compensated conductivity sensor. This is not for ...

Recent Advances in Resolving Bias in Discharge Measurement by Acoustic Scintillation
Recent work has improved understanding of the performance of the Acoustic Scintillation Flow Meter (ASFM) in hydroelectric intakes, particularly the factors affecting the accuracy of the results. The primary cause for systematic (or bias) errors was found to be coincident, strong inhomogeneities in the intensity of small-scale turbulence and the mean velocity in the measurement plane, such as are ...
