PacIOOS Nearshore Sensor 003: Atlantis Submarine Dock, Oahu, Hawaii

Published by Pacific Islands Ocean Observing System (PacIOOS) | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Metadata Last Checked: January 27, 2026 | Last Modified: 2023-06-13T00:00:00.000+00:00
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_003 is located at the Atlantis Submarine dock adjacent to Kahanamoku Lagoon and the Hilton Hawaiian Village near Waikiki on the South Shore of Oahu in the State of Hawaii. The sensor package is fixed to the pier at approximately 2 meters below mean sea level. 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.
