The XMP is an expendable turbulence profiler for single use. It measures two components of small scale velocity shear, temperature, and depth. Data are transmitted via an expendable, fibre optic wire link and recorded on a ship board laptop.
The XMP can be used in variety of situations. It is ideal for bottom boundary measurements, as the profiler is designed to crash into the sea floor. Alternatively, the XMP is useful when measurements are carried out in busy waterways, where it is difficult to hold position during profiling operations with regular microstructure profilers. No prior expertise is required to operate the XMP.
