METEOROLOGICAL DATA

R/V Urania  is equipped with a full suite of meteorological sensors by Aanderra, datalogger 3660, acquiring wind magnitude and direction, sea surface temperature and salinity, relative humidity, incoming solar radiation and ship position. These data are typically downloaded at the end of the cruise and processed at the lab.
