Current, in terms of hydrology, refers to the movement of water that takes place in all natural surface waters, including streams, rivers, lakes, coastal waters, and oceans. Various factors influence water currents, such as wind patterns, temperature and salinity differences, the Earth’s rotation (Coriolis effect), the gravitational pull of the moon, the physical topography of […]
The following article provides information on the proper settings required for communication between a Nortek Aquadopp Current Profiler and an X2 data logger. Advanced information describes how the X2 detects and records data from the sensor and includes troubleshooting procedures for common error codes. X2 Requirements The X2 data logger includes a pre-loaded […]
