The Autonomous Vertical Profilers (AVPs) use a YSI Multi-Parameter Sonde to measure water temperature, salinity, pH, dissolved oxygen concentration, chlorophyll concentration, and turbidity from surface to bottom every 30 minutes. There is also an anemometer for wind speed and direction, and a consumer-grade depth sounder reporting water depth and surface temperature.
