Abstract:

In 2023, five PIES instruments (pressure-sensing inverted echo sounders) were deployed in Yucatan Channel. The instruments measure seafloor pressure, as well as the travel time of an acoustic signal between the seafloor and the sea surface. Data products from these PIES deployments are reported here.
