• mean current ±6 cm/s, rapid changes
• Still QC• Upward +W bias –
instrumental, or ACO flow distortion?
• Correlated with “horizontal” flow – ACO tilted (~5°, negligible in horizontal flow, correctable in vertical component)

ADP – Instrument and Science Summary• SonTek 250 kHz, 6 mm scattering length-scale (turbulence+?)• Coherent signals at significant range (80 m)• Old 4-element unit works well, new 3-element unit has noisy
beam• Must poll for data (clocks, interference, use SIAM)
• Strong tidal flows, more energetic than TPXO7.2 barotropic tides
• Significant internal tide energy in near-bottom currents, with diurnal and nonlinear harmonics
• Cold, bottom-intensified events are a major source of non-stationary stratification – is this an important source of abyssal internal tide modulation?

Temperature Summary
• Heisenberg bites! ACO heat dissipation causes thermal plumes
• De-spiked daily averaged SBE-37 temperature agrees with shipboard CTD SBE 9/11+ profile data to within 1 m°C
• Major cold overflow event captured, no aliasing• Sloshing mode hypothesized by Lukas et al.
(2001, DSR) supported• Cf Alford et al., 2011

Problems and Failures• Ground faults – acoustic modem, AMM secondary node
with primary CTDO2 and FLNTU
• Lights?? – bad heat sink, bad control circuit• Thermistor array; connector to ACO broke on
deployment; internally recording; being recovered now• SBE-37 conductivity/salinity? • Pressure sensor - ? (initially odd, now drift/jumps)• Shore-side
– Hardware (UPS failed Christmas Eve, …), – Backhaul 3 Mb/s – large constraint (expect +ve change)– Software – data transfers
• Underfunded
![Page 21: Bruce M. Howe, Roger Lukas and many more! School of Ocean and Earth Science and Technology University of Hawai’i at Manoa American Geophysical Union, OS51F-06.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56649ed45503460f94be4b63/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Lessons• Even more testing• Cables and connectors• Sensor/system interactions, electrical noise/interference,
heat sinking• Precise time sampling, control• Improve deployment/ops, spread out seafloor equipment• Don’t underestimate shore-side needs
– Network management – intensive!– Data management – intensive!– Documentation – intensive!– Real-time – intensive!
• Understanding problems with data – intensive!• Observatories prove value with un-aliased data

Expanding science at ALOHA• Water column
– Dynamics, mixing, turbulence, episodic events
– Biogeochemistry – nutrients, production, fluxes
• Benthic communities – vertical fluxes, top predators
• Surface wave phenomena (e.g., ultra-gravities)
• Marine mammal studies – ships, behavior, population
• Basin scale communications and thermometry
• Synergies with historical/on-going ALOHA/HOT program

Present and future
• Getting science results• Faults/failures, lessons• NSF OTIC O&M project
– 2012-2015– Includes 5 days ship/rov time– Barebones
• September 2013 cruise– repair/replace non-working core sensors
• Proposals to use – Submit to NSF, others
