Abstract
The purpose of this report is to discuss the use of a Neil Brown
Instrument Systems internal recording CTD. The components of the
instrument are described along with the advantages and disadvantages of
the internal recording system. Calibration of the pressure and
temperature sensors in the laboratory and the method used for in situ
calibration of the conductivity sensor is described. A step by step
description of the use of the CTD/IR at sea is also included.
