Situation of Dumont d'Urville tide gauge
It contains a Mors automatic tide gauge station which activates, every half an hour, measurements of:
- Atmospheric pressure and air temperature with a Mors sensor.
- Bottom pressure and sea water temperature with an immersed Mors sensor.
Measurements are real time transmitted, via Argos system, to LEGOS.
