Extratropical Storm Hermine passed over the Pioneer mooring array (CP03ISSM) the first week of September 2016. The Bulk Meteorology Instrument Package (METBK) at 0 m and a CTD at 7 m captured the response to the storm passage in :
- a decrease in sea surface temperature
- an increase in sea surface salinity
- an increase in wind speed
- an increase in surface current speed
- an increase in precipitation.
