Oceanographic Data Logger

An oceanographic data logger is a specialized device used to monitor and record conditions in the ocean over time. It collects important environmental data such as temperature, salinity, depth, and currents, often automatically and at set intervals. These devices are typically placed on the seafloor, attached to buoys, or floated at various depths. The information gathered helps scientists understand ocean behavior, climate change effects, and marine ecosystems. Data loggers are durable, waterproof, and capable of functioning in challenging underwater environments, providing valuable insights for research, navigation, and environmental protection.
