Patricia Bay Conductivity Temperature Depth Deployed 2018-09-30

The Sea-Bird SeaCAT SBE19plus V2 5270 was deployed on 2018-09-30 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 3.0 digital infrastructure, with quality assurance and derived data products following established practices.

Sea-Bird SeaCAT SBE19plus V2 5270型设备于2018年9月30日在帕特里夏湾（Patricia Bay）完成部署。帕特里夏湾地处温哥华岛南端的萨尼奇湾（Saanich Inlet）内。该设备为温盐深（Conductivity Temperature Depth, CTD）观测系统，是一套集成了海水电导率、温度与压力传感器的观测载荷。盐度、声速、水深与海水密度均可通过传感器实测数据推导得到。CTD系统可搭载额外的仪器与传感器，例如溶解氧传感器、浊度传感器与荧光计。本次部署采用固定平台。此次采集的相关数据已完成归档，并通过加拿大海洋网络（Ocean Networks Canada）的Oceans 3.0数字基础设施对外共享，所有数据均遵循既定行业规范完成质量控制与衍生数据产品的制作。
