    Lake Superior moored temperature and currents, Sep 2005-May 2015
    (University of Minnesota Duluth, Large Lakes Observatory, 2021-07-28) Austin, Jay A; Elmer, Cassandra; jaustin@d.umn.edu; Austin, Jay; University of Minnesota Duluth, Large Lakes Observatory
    From 2005 to the present, investigators from the Large Lakes Observatory at the University of Minnesota, Duluth have been deploying sub-surface moorings instrumented with temperature and current sensors at a variety of sites around Lake Superior. Temperature sensors at a range of depths, and profiling current meters were used to characterize the physical properties of the lake's water column. At one site, a nearly continuous time series of temperature throughout the water column exists from 2005 to the present, including winter months. Other sites are occupied for shorter spans. This archival entry covers the period 2005-2015.
