Strait of Georgia East Conductivity Temperature Depth Deployed 2012-02-25

The Sea-Bird SeaCAT SBE16plus 4998 was deployed on 2012-02-25 at Strait of Georgia East. Strait of Georgia East refers to an eastern area of the Strait of Georgia. 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.

Sea-Bird SeaCAT SBE16plus 4998型海洋仪器于2012年2月25日部署于乔治亚海峡东区，该区域为乔治亚海峡的东部海域。本设备属于温盐深测量系统（Conductivity Temperature Depth，简称CTD），是集成海水电导率、温度与压力传感器的一体化仪器套件。通过传感器的实测数据可衍生得到盐度、声速、水深与海水密度等多项参数。该类温盐深测量系统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。本次部署的仪器搭载于固定式观测平台之上。本批次部署获取的观测数据已完成归档，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，所有数据均遵循既定规范完成质量管控与衍生数据产品制作。
