Abstract

A system includes: an anchor placed on a sea bottom; a submersible mooring cable having a first end connected to the anchor; an intermediate buoy connected to a second end of the submersible mooring cable and floating in the sea; an intermediate mooring cable having a first end connected to the intermediate buoy; an observation buoy connected to a second end of the intermediate mooring cable, and measuring ocean data of an upper layer from a sea surface to the intermediate buoy while floating and sinking between the intermediate buoy and the sea surface; and a lower layer-observation unit placed along the submersible mooring cable, and measuring ocean data of a lower layer in a location deeper than the intermediate buoy. Ocean data of a wide area between the sea surface and the sea bottom can be acquired easily.
