πŸŽ₯ Part 1: Buoy in motion. Watch the surface buoy being towed behind R/V Revelle during deployment. It trails over 3 km before the anchor is dropped - positioning the mooring line in place for deep ocean monitoring. #OOIDataMatters #Irminger12 #NSFFunded

πŸŽ₯ Part 2: Anchor Drop The anchor is released - sinking 2700 meters to the seafloor to secure the mooring system. This final step locks everything in place for long-term data collection. #OOIDataMatters #Irminger12 #NSFFunded
