A mooring has been developed to collect and transmit oceanographic and meteorological data via satellite links. Data telemetered included currents (from 50 to 250 m), water and air temperature, wind, relative humidity, barometric pressure, and various engineering parameters. The unique aspect of the STEM design was the use of electromechanical cable for both the strength member of the mooring and the electrical connection between the subsurface instruments and the surface buoy. The surface mooring was deployed 150 m south of Cape Cod in 2700 m of water in November 1987 and retrieved in May 1988. It operated successfully through the harsh North Atlantic winter.<>

Summary form only given. A family of multichannel underwater acoustic data acquisition systems were deployed to the ocean floor and utilize video cassette recorders. One of these systems, the Acoustic Transient Recording Buoy (ATRB), was used as part of an ocean boundary interaction acoustic measurement program. Explosive SUS charges were used as a source of transient high-energy wideband acoustic signals and the direct, surface, and bottom-interacting multipath arrivals from their detonation were recorded by the bottom-moored ATRB system. Acoustic data obtained from the first two deployments are of very high quality, with wider bandwidth and dynamic range than data sets acquired during earlier experiments using analog recording methods.<>

Seasat radar altimeter data are examined for the effects of sea ice on the returns during an overflight of the Beaufort Sea. Waveform parameters and their statistics are combined to form a parameter sensitive to the presence of sea ice. Variations in the value of this ice parameter are compared with ice charts obtained from the Canadian Atmospheric Environment Service. Particular attention is paid to the sensitivity of the radar altimeter to the open-ocean sea ice boundary.<>

It is shown that wave-powered desalination can be achieved by a relatively simple buoy/pump/anchor system coupled to a standard reverse-osmosis filter. By engineering the system from appropriate materials and component designs, it is possible to operate the device with only annual maintenance for up to five years. As a result, the device is economically viable for use in areas such as the Caribbean.<>
