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.

A towed, multi-frequency H.F. sonar system for scattering and ocean dynamics studies
Hess, Frederick R.; Orr, Marshall H. (Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 1979-10)The system described provides wide operational flexibility at any operating frequency from 5 kHz to over 800 kHz (except for a small band around 455 kHz) limited mainly by the availability of transducers. Variable pulse ... -
