• Description:
  This report summarizes the data collection and analysis completed by NCOP in the 2019 New York Harbor Current Survey. A total of 33 stations were successfully deployed for at least lunar month (29 days). One additional station (NYH1925 [Middle Ground]) was deployed but surfaced within an hour and was not reoccupied due to equipment limitations. Currents were measured at each station with an acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) moored with a configuration determined by factors such as station depth, seafloor composition, expected maritime activities, anticipated currents, and available inventory. Concurrent with each deployment and recovery of an ADCP, a vertical conductivity-temperature-depth (CTD) profile was taken to ascertain the physical properties of the seawater at the approximate location of each station.
