Short summary
In this paper, heights of moored oceanographic instrumentation are determined from high-resolution temperature data. Unfortunately pressure-corrected data could not be used from near-homogeneous conditions due to short-term electronic drift. Instead, a satisfactory height determination was found during relatively strong stratification and large turbulence activity. By using turbulence data across a strong temperature gradient, significant height variations were detectable to within ±0.2 m.
