The Naval Postgraduate School Department of Oceanography (NPS-Ocean) team will be working in the inner shelf region (40 meter water depth or less) to study the wind stress, subsurface turbulence, the turbulence above the ocean surface, ocean waves and currents, and the interaction between various air and ocean processes.

​One of the main objectives of the NPS-Ocean team is the deployment of the I-SPAR buoy.  This groundbreaking buoy, designed and built by the NPS-Ocean team, provides real-time measurements of oceanic and atmospheric parameters in the inner shelf region.  Accurately measuring these parameters is essential for characterizing the interactions between processes.   
 
In addition to the I-SPAR buoy, the NPS-Ocean team will also deploy acoustic doppler current profilers, sub surface pressure sensors, sub surface temperature sensors, and SOFAR’s Spotter directional wave buoys to fully characterize the ocean environment in the inner shelf region.
