A few questions I’ve been asked over face orbital wave motion on the moor- the years: How long will it take for the ing line and buoy. A JONSWAP wave mooring to come to the surface? How spectrum is simulated to check if the far might the mooring drift as it comes buoy will pitch. Clearly, in this case, a to the surface? In the case considered, bottom mounted ADCP frame would be the AF36-750m mooring rises at about preferred, but we don’t always have the 2.7 m/s. If this mooring was deployed equipment we need on hand. It’s good to at 750m, it would take between four and have tools to check the impact of waves
