Zeus II Conductivity Temperature Depth Deployed 2015-05-20

The Valeport miniCTD (SN 36277) was deployed on 2015-05-20 on Zeus II. This Remotely Operated Vehicle is owned by Odyssey Marine Explorations. This device is a Conductivity Temperature Depth. Conductivity Temperature Depth (CTD) is an instrument package that contains sensors for measuring the conductivity, temperature, and pressure of seawater. Salinity, sound velocity, depth and density are variables that can be derived from sensor measurements. CTDs can carry additional instruments and sensors such as oxygen sensors, turbidity sensors and fluorometers. It was deployed on a mobile platform. Data from this deployment were archived and made available through Ocean Networks Canada's Oceans 3.0 digital infrastructure, with quality assurance and derived data products following established practices.
