Vector 3D Current Meter
The Vector 3D current meter collects
high-resolution velocity and pressure data in rapidly changing
environments. Based on processing schemes originally developed for the
Nortek Acoustic Doppler Velocimeter, the system electronics integrates
unique Doppler velocity measurements with standard sensors such as
temperature, pressure, tilt, and compass. State-of-the-art power
management and miniaturized electronics combine in a compact
single-canister design that is suitable for real time operation or
self-contained deployments. The Vector supports burst sampling, where data
are sampled rapidly for a short period of time before it
"sleeps" to preserve battery power and recorder memory. The
Vector samples pressure at the same time as the 3D velocity. All other
sensors are sampled at 1 Hz. The Vector comes with a complete suite of
Windows 95/98/00/NT/2000/XP software for deployment planning, real time
data collection and data retrieval. As an option, the post processing
program ExploreV is available to review, process and interpret your
Vector. The processing includes spectral analysis, coordinate transforms,
and calculation of complex turbulence parameters.

Paroscientific,
Inc.
The Digiquartz® Barometers are used in a
variety of precision meteorological applications. The Model
760-16B is used as a transfer standard in laboratory and field
applications. These standards have been used in an international
calibration and intercomparison study originated by the Norwegian
Meteorological Institute (DMNI). Median drift rate of the units was
-0.007 hPa (-0.0002 in Hg) per year. Pressure hysteresis tests showed a
mean hysteresis less than 0.001 hPa.
