    • PacIOOS Nearshore Sensor 005: Pago Pago, Tutuila, American Samoa

    Metadata Updated: August 27, 2024

    The nearshore sensors are part of the Pacific Islands Ocean Observing System (PacIOOS) and are designed to measure a variety of ocean parameters at fixed points. nss_005 is located at the dock of the Department of Marine and Wildlife Resources (DMWR) in Pago Pago Harbor on the island of Tutuila in American Samoa. The sensor package is mounted to the sea floor at approximately 2 meters depth. 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.
