Hosted by Nortek
WED, NOV 18
08:30 - 17:00
National Oceanography Centre (NOC), Southampton
Doppler Dynamics - Oceanography
The morning sessions will introduce the fundamentals, ensuring everyone has a shared level of understanding before we explore practical tips for maximising deployment success. We will then review recent developments across Nortek’s ADCP product range - including the Gen 2 AWAC, Aquadopp and Vector - and offer a glimpse of what’s coming next.
After lunch, we will split into two groups. You can choose to:
- Join a vessel-based practical demonstration of a vessel-mounted ADCP, followed by a session on processing the collected data; or
- Remain at the NOC for an introduction to ADCP quality assurance, quality control and data post-processing using Ocean Contour.
There will be regular breaks throughout the day, providing plenty of opportunities to network and speak with Nortek experts. Lunch and refreshments will be provided.
