Ocean temperature; ThermometersAbstract
The nomenclature, morphology and functioning of deep sea reversing
thermometers are identified and explained. The various types of
malfunctions, nonfunctions and other aberrations are defined and detailed
instructions are given for the procedures used to restore normal functioning
to the extent possible. Advice is given regarding the use, handling,
storage and transportation of these instruments so as to avoid damage and
actions which might cause malfunctions to occur.
