We thank Ryan McCabe from NOAA/PMEL for deploying this buoy from the research ship NOAA Oscar Dyson. This buoy was designed and built by Pacific Northwest National Laboratory's Power Blue Economy project, Lead Scientist Dr. Daniel Deng with engineers Drs. Hyunjun Jung, Zhaocheng (Lucas) Lu and Wonseop Hwang. PNNL SPB-004.

SUMMARY
The plot below shows the path of UpTempO 2025 #5 NOAA Oscar Dyson colored by month. The flag marks the buoy's last known location. Black contours show two isobaths: 28 m ("short buoy" max depth: e.g., 2011 APLIS buoy) and 60 m ("standard buoy"
max depth).

The temperature time series for each thermistor is shown below, plotted against day of the year or date.
BATTERY VOLTAGE/SUBMERGENCE PERCENT
The percent of the time that the buoy spent submerged is plotted in black, while battery voltage is shown in red.
Derived Quantities
VELOCITY TIME SERIES
One to three hourly velocity is on the left axis.Distance between the buoy's start point and end point each day is shown in red on the right axis.Note that the total displacement of the buoy each day (red) is generally less than what one would calculate from the hourly velocities.
