Water sampling with Rosette carrousel L-ADCP
CTD with auxiliary sensors SBE9plus supplies Conductivity, Temperature and Depth measurements with the rate of 24 Hz. In terms of vertical resolution of profile it gives about 4 cm depth intervals. Additional auxiliary sensors: - oxygen - fluorescence - turbidity - transparency - nitrate - altimeter
Expendable Probes eXpendable CTD Profiler (XCTD) eXpendable BathyThermograph (XBT) 31 XBT and 18 XCTD were launched
