CTD instrument package
Dr Phil Sutton of NIWA works on a CTD (Conductivity Temperature Depth) instrument package used to measure the ocean. CTD uses the same instruments as Argo scientific floats, but is lowered from ships. Salinity and temperature are measured at specific locations and depths, and are checked against Argo data.
