This entry begins a series about a work trip I took to calibrate ocean surface current data. Unfortunately, on the first day, we we were met with strong winds and a small craft advisory for Cook Inlet, which meant that we couldn't go out in a boat as planned. Since we couldn't have the boat drive around with our transmitter, we put it in Andrew’s backpack and had him walk around the beach during low tide. He couldn't get as far offshore as the boat, but it was good practice.
In the end, it didn’t matter because our GPS didn’t record the data correctly. What a waste, but at least it helped to kill the time.
I apologize if you’re confused by all of my work verbiage. Everyone is. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.
