What the buyer wrote
The NOC's RAPID mission monitoring the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (MOC) at 26.5° has been in place since 2004. The aim of the mission is to monitor sea temperature fluctuations caused by greenhouse gas emissions and salinity to calculate the current state of large scale ocean currents. In coordination with the University of Miami and the NOAA, NOC has deployed 19 moorings across the southward Atlantic MOC. The moorings are recovered annually and serviced every 18 months.
