Description
Summary:XCTD data from Commonwealth Bay and The Mertz Polynya To compare the current oceanographic conditions in the region with previous measurements, expendable conductivity temperature and depth probes (XCTDs; model XCTD-1, Tsurumi-Seiki Co.) were deployed. To demonstrate the reliability of the XCTD data, test casts were assessed against repeat casts using Sea- Bird SBE 37-SM MicroCAT CTD calibrated for cold-water conditions. A TSK TS-MK-21 expendable XCTD system was used to gather oceanographic data, which were recorded on a laptop computer.
