Mastodon 2D – low cost measurements in shallow water along the water column

Nine low-cost Mastodon 2D moorings will deployed in the Bay of Biscay for a duration of two weeks to study fast changes in temperature. This has been organised thanks to the Etoile cruise in the JERICO-NEXT project.

The bin below the mooring contains the buoy for the travelling and boarding.
