RBRargo CTDs profile under Hurricane Florence and provide critical forecasting data

Water temperature and pressure data

On September 11, 2018, a NOAA Hurricane Hunter airplane flew into the path of Hurricane Florence and air-deployed 10 RBRargo CTDs mounted to profiling floats that parachuted into the Atlantic Ocean. The upper-ocean temperature data collected by the profiling floats was used to improve the forecast of the hurricane’s intensity as it headed for the Carolinas. Florence grew into a … Read More about RBRargo CTDs profile under Hurricane Florence and provide critical forecasting data
