A 6m steel self supporting pole was erected on the northern side of Orpehus Island in the channel between Pelorus Island and Orpheus Island.The pole is set up as per RP1 with two MEA thermistors located at 50m and 100m from the pole and an SBE39 located 100m from the pole and an SBE37 located 200m from the pole in the deeper water. The project looks to deploy sensor networks at seven sites along the Great Barrier Reef to measure a range of physical parameters at a range of scales. The project will install communications, data and platform infrastructure that will support future sensor work looking at biological and chemical parameters. The FAIMMS Project is part of the GBROOS or Great Barrier Reef Ocean Observing System project which in turn is part of the Australian Integrated Marine Observing System or IMOS.
