ON THE ISSUE OF AUTOMATION OF MARINE COASTAL HYDROLOGICAL OBSERVATIONS
Sustainable development and maintenance of the functioning of the state marine coastal observation station in the modern period involves the technical re-equipment and introduction of automated measuring instruments into the practice of conducting marine hydrological observations. However, to date, technologies for conducting marine hydrological observations with the use of modern automated measuring instruments have not been fully developed, especially in the conditions of an unequipped coast and freezing seas. Preliminary studies have shown that the transition to new measuring instruments, without scientifically based technological solutions, is likely to lead to a violation of the quality of observations.
