RBR Ltd Lunch & Learn: Optimizing Coastal Measurements: An
Instrumentation Workshop
Chris Kontoes

Coastal ocean observations, as fundamental and exciting as they are,
can also be quite the daunting task. As an instrumentation provider,
RBR has recognized that those who take the time to become familiar
with, care for, and understand the limitations and strengths of
their equipment often have the greatest successes in the field.
This workshop is a forum to spark interests in understanding
oceanographic sensor measurement methods, improving the quality of
field data, increasing deployment success rates, and improving the
safety of those conducting the observations. We will focus on best
practices, practical maintenance, deployment considerations, and a
few tips and tricks to help get the most from your ocean observing
equipment. The material covered is applicable to a wide variety of
common instrumentation.

About
The Scripps Technical Forum (STF) is a grassroots effort to make
technical expertise and resources more widely available within the
UCSD/Scripps community; to enhance communications between technical
staff and departments; explore extended opportunities for
interdepartmental collaboration, technology transfer, and industry
interactions; to explore innovative solutions to emerging
challenges; to monitor and disseminate trends and new technologies;
and, aid in personnel retention and enhance job satisfaction,
including continuing education, and opportunities for job growth.
The group is open to anyone within SIO and
UCSD interested in applied technology. We host a semi-monthly midday
meeting with free food and an interesting program of presentations
given by members of the community and industry.
