The Air-Deployed Microbuoy (ADMB) is an in situ buoy sensor deployed from uncrewed aerial systems (UAS). It contains three thermistors that measure sea surface temperature and subsurface water temperature at depths of 1 m and 2 m. The UAS retrieves the data as it flies over the buoy using the ADMB's 900 MHz radio receiver. The ADMB samples at 1 Hz and has an operational lifetime of about 10 days, depending on conditions.
