What is the difference between floats and dinghies? How do they work and what sensors do they carry?<\/strong><\/h4><p class=\"rtejustify\">The floats measure temperature, salinity and dissolved oxygen in the water column from a depth of 2000 m to the surface.<\/p><p class=\"rtejustify\">An inflatable external bladder allows the float to rise and fall. Once at the surface, the Iridium transmission starts up to transmit all the data.<\/p><p class=\"rtejustify\">The floats are equipped with a CTD and, depending on the model, an oxygen probe, a radiometer, a fluorometer and a spectrophotometer (nitrates in our case).<\/p><p class=\"rtejustify\">Drifting buoys allow you to observe the speed of the water near the surface and, depending on the type of buoy (the design can vary), a few other parameters are recorded.<\/p><p class=\"rtejustify\">\u00a0<\/p><h4 class=\"rtejustify\"><strong>What physical processes can be studied?<\/strong><\/h4><p class=\"rtejustify\">The speed and mixing of seawater, heat content and exchange, fronts and tides.
