The NKE Instrumentation SC40 drifting buoy series comprises autonomous surface tracking platforms designed to monitor upper-ocean dynamics, surface currents, and pollutant or oil spill trajectories. Each unit drifts dynamically with specific water masses when equipped with a dedicated holey sock drogue, maintaining an optimised drag ratio for accurate current-following performance. Integrated sensor payloads capture essential atmospheric and hydrodynamic variables while relying on onboard GPS positioning and satellite communication links to transmit data globally.
The NKE drifting buoys offer Lagrangian tracking capabilities to map complex open-ocean current paths over extended deployments. They feature rugged, weather-resistant structural housings engineered to withstand severe open-sea environments without manual intervention.
