Abstract
Two Wirewalkers (Pinkel et. al, 2011), from CMRE and URI respectively, were deployed from N/O Pourquoi Pas? during the CALYPSO 2022 campaign. Both were used in three deployments (with one additional test deployment for the URI Wirewalker). The profilers were manufactured by Del Mar Oceanographic in San Diego, CA, USA and were used in freely-drifting configuration to monitor the upper water column (down to 200 m depth) with high-frequency sampling (period as little as 15 min). The Wirewalker goes up and down along a wire that is powered by the motion of the surface waves for descent and uses its own positive buoyancy for ascent. More information on deployments and recoveries is available in cruise report for the 2022 N/O Pourquoi Pas? cruise (https://hdl.handle.net/1912/71878). Additional information on data processing, methodologies, and file formats is included in the 2022 data report (https://hdl.handle.net/1912/71916).
