USGS Type AAMH Ice Current Meter with Poly Buckets

The USGS Type AAMH ICE meter with polymer bucket wheel is an exclusively patented design to eliminate the collection of slush ice and greatly improve velocity measurements under ice cover. The polymer bucket wheels have solid cups which do not allow ice to collect in the metal buckets of the standard AA-ICE meter. The meter operates in the same way as the standard meter but does not use the standard rating table.
