Drifters (or drifting buoys) are scientific instruments primarily designed to measure sea surface temperature (SST), though most models can also monitor variables such as air pressure, wind speed, wave height, and salinity. Data collected by onboard sensors are transmitted via satellite, allowing scientists to map ocean currents and study their variations over time.
A key component of a drifter is the drogue (sea anchor), which extends to about 20 meters (65 feet) below the surface. The drogue is connected to the surface buoy by a long tether, ensuring that the drifter follows the near-surface ocean currents rather than being pushed by winds or waves. Without the drogue, the drifter would drift erratically, much like a ping-pong ball or beach ball carried by surface winds across a pool.
Benefits of Drifting Buoy
Drifting buoys measure sea surface temperature, which is critical to predicting climate patterns. Warm sea surface temperature is an enormous source of energy, which fuels storms such as hurricanes and increases their intensity.
Drifters also help forecast the path of approaching hurricanes because they allow a closer look at hurricane formation and ocean heat which affect storm intensity and movement.
Drifters predict the movement of pollutants that spill into the sea.
Drifters measure salinity, which is important in determining the ocean’s chemical make-up. Since marine species such as coral, kelp and phytoplankton are affected by changes in salinity, identifying fluctuations is important. Salinity also affects water density which, in turn, affects ocean circulation patterns that transport heat.
Drifters measure ocean current velocity, or both the speed and direction of currents. These currents carry much more than water. The Gulf Stream, for example, carries vast amounts of heat and salt northward in the Atlantic Ocean, and this affects the many marine species whose migration is shaped by seasonal temperature changes and ocean currents.
Satellite technology makes sea surface temperature measurements possible from space, but to ensure these measurements are accurate, drifters are used to compare actual sea surface temperatures to the temperature measurements from space. Without drifter observations to correct satellite measurements, these measurements can err due to dust and other elements in the atmosphere.
With global climate change, drifters are an important tool for monitoring ocean temperature and circulation and the movements of marine species.

During the packaging process, we carefully design the buoys based on their size, weight, external structure, and quantity to ensure safe and stable transportation. Reinforced wooden boxes are typically used for outer protection, with cushioning materials such as foam and sponge incorporated inside to effectively reduce the risks of vibration, collision, or crushing. Furthermore, packaging design is customized for different buoy models, such as adding protective brackets or thicker linings for buoys equipped with precision sensors to further safeguard the integrity of the equipment. Through scientific packaging methods, we minimize transportation losses and ensure that our buoys reach our customers safely and intact..
