| MAD SEA (Marine Autonomous Deep
SEA Storm Monitor)
Specialty Devices, Inc., working with the Gas Hydrate Research
Consortium directed by the Mississippi Minerals Resource Institute, has
developed and installed a Severe Storm Monitoring System. The MAD SEA
Storm Monitor was installed in approximately 1,000 meters of water depth
at Mississippi Canyon 118 in the Gulf of Mexico on June 12, 2006. The
Storm Monitor is to be recovered in November of 2006 at the conclusion of
the hurricane season in the Gulf of Mexico.
The following web-page discusses this MAD SEA Storm Monitor and its
capabilities. The Storm Monitor can also be used for marine mammal
research and for monitoring man made acoustic signatures. MAD

Craft for Small Water Body
The
DJB-1243 has been specifically designed to serve as a portable shallow draft
work platform for sub-bottom profiling and core sampling of small or shallow
water bodies. The DBJ is particularly useful for water bodies without launching
ramps as it can be transported in the bed of a pickup truck and hand carried by
two people for assembly at the water’s edge.
In the unassembled configuration the two hull sections stack on built in
stacking points.
