RESEARCH FOR THE MOORING DESIGN A review of the methods used by other oceanographic institutions in constructing moored instrument arrays in- dicated that these designs fell into two basic categories: the taut line systems and the slack line systems. A taut line assumes a straight vertical line in the absence of en- vironmental forces. A slack line assumes an upward or down- ward catenary if the mooring cable has positive or negative buoyancy with respect to seawater. TAUT MOORINGSi Q. Please note that these images ar
