The GLUCOS buoy-based observing system was deployed in Lake Michigan off the coasts of Milwaukee and Shorewood, WI from April 8 to May 28, 2009 to measure the dynamics of spring stratification. Three radio-linked data acquisition Pioneer buoys were deployed at 20 m, 40 m and 60 m depths approximately 2.1 km, 6.1 km and 9.2 km from shore respectively. Each buoy was equipped with a temperature sensor...
Development of an inexpensive in situ sonar platform is described, using a relatively low-cost acoustic transducer and custom software, that can be deployed throughout the lake or a region of interest, using buoys or fixed moorings. Ultimately, the product of this project will be a system that has many potential applications, including tracking aquatic fauna over large areas, and quantitative and...
We are developing an aquatic observatory to observe and study near-shore processes in Lake Michigan. The Great Lakes Urban Coastal Observing System (GLUCOS) is designed to make both long-term measurements and transient event measurements of river-harbor-lake interactions that occur in Milwaukee Harbor and the adjacent Milwaukee Bay region of Lake Michigan. Two large "Endurance" buoys will...
