This thesis proposes a design approach for a modular multi-sensor monitoring system to improve accessibility to in-situ observations of the sea surface. The design includes a flexible measurement module for hardware agnostic sensor extensions, an embedded conductivity and temperature sensor for cost-effective salinity measurements, and a wave energy harvester for long-term deployments. Model-based design methods are used to derive fundamental design principles and allow multi-physics optimization. The low-cost system enables large-scale deployment of in-situ measurements and may pave the way for the next generation of in-situ sea surface monitoring.
