Patricia Bay Conductivity Temperature Depth Deployed 2008-02-27

The Sea-Bird SeaCAT SBE16plus 4997 was deployed on 2008-02-27 at Patricia Bay. Patricia Bay is located in the Saanich Inlet, on the southern tip of Vancouver Island. 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 fixed platform. Data from this deployment were archived and made available through Ocean Networks Canada's Oceans 2.0 digital infrastructure, with quality assurance and derived data products following established practices.

海鸟（Sea-Bird）公司的SeaCAT SBE16plus 4997型设备于2008年2月27日在帕特里夏湾（Patricia Bay）完成布放。帕特里夏湾地处温哥华岛南端的萨尼奇湾（Saanich Inlet）。该设备为导电率-温度-深度测量仪（Conductivity Temperature Depth，简称CTD），是一套集成了海水电导率、温度与压力传感器的仪器套件。盐度、声速、水深与海水密度均可通过传感器采集的测量数据推导得出。CTD可搭载额外的仪器与传感器，例如溶氧传感器、浊度传感器与荧光计。本次布放作业依托固定式平台完成。此次布放获取的数据已完成归档，并通过加拿大海洋网络（Ocean Networks Canada）的Oceans 2.0数字基础设施对外共享，其质量保障与衍生数据产品均遵循既定行业规范。
