Saanich Inlet Sill Conductivity Temperature Depth Deployed 2013-04-29

The Sea-Bird SeaCAT SBE16plus 6934 was deployed on 2013-04-29 at Saanich Inlet Sill. Saanich Inlet Sill is a shallow bottom feature in the Saanich Inlet. The sill influences flow of oxygenated water and seasonal cycles. 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 3.0 digital infrastructure, with quality assurance and derived data products following established practices.

海鸟（Sea-Bird）SeaCAT SBE16plus 6934型设备于2013年4月29日在萨尼奇湾海槛（Saanich Inlet Sill）完成布放。萨尼奇湾海槛是萨尼奇湾内的浅海床地貌，其会对含氧水团的流动与季节循环过程产生影响。本设备为温盐深仪（Conductivity Temperature Depth，以下简称CTD），该观测套件集成了用于测量海水电导率、温度与压力的传感器，可通过传感器原始测量数据推导得到盐度、声速、水深与海水密度等参数。温盐深仪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。本次布放采用固定式平台，此次部署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 3.0数字基础设施对外提供，且遵循既定行业规范完成了质量管控与衍生数据产品的制作。
