A Conductivity, Temperature and Depth (CTD) profiler has been
designed to make precise fine scale measurements of these physical parameters
in the ocean. This CTD system consists of a shipboard Data
Terminal deck unit and an underwater unit which provides continuous
sampling of the three variables as it is lowered into the water. Additional
sensors can be added to measure other variables; the most common
is dissolved oxygen.
This report is a detailed description of the CTD System and
includes the necessary documentation to operate and maintain the equipment.

Satellite images of warm core ring 82-B sea surface temperature and a chronological record of major physical events affecting ring structure
Evans, Robert H.; Baker, Karen S.; Brown, O.; Smith, Raymond C.; Hooker, Stanford B.; Olson, Donald B.; Warm Core Rings Program Service Office (Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 1984-01)A chronology constructed from satellite-derived thermal imagery is presented to describe the formation and life history of warm-core ring 82-B. A comparison is made with warm-core ring 81-F in order to illustrate similarities ... -
Eddy forcing of the mean circulation in the western North Atlantic
Brown, Ellen Dunning (Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 1984-08)This thesis addresses several aspects of the problem of determining the effect of the low-frequency eddy variability on the mean circulation of the Western North Atlantic. A framework for this study is first established ... -
