This nearshore sensor (nss_012) is located at Kalama Beach Park in Kīhei along the south shore of Maui in the State of Hawaiʻi. The sensor package is fixed to a mooring at about 1.5 meters depth. This instrument does not report in real-time. Data are logged every 4 minutes and retrieved periodically. PacIOOS nearshore sensors monitor coastal water conditions to help provide early indications of potentially polluted run-off from storm drainage, sewage spills, and soil erosion from land-based waterways such as streams and other outflows that lead directly into the ocean. Owned and maintained by PacIOOS under the supervision of Dr. Margaret McManus and lab.
