Summary: | These photos were taken in 2007 during an oceanographic expedition in the Barrow Strait aboard the CCGS DesGroseilliers. The mission was part of the ongoing Arctic flow-through research: Canadian Archipelago Throughflow Study – Barrow Strait. On August 4, the team had just finished sampling water with Niskin bottles and a CTD * when this iceberg drifted close to their line. Back cover photo: Jim Hamilton, a scientist in Ocean Physics, in DFO’s Ocean Sciences Division at BIO, aboard the launch as it approaches the iceberg * A CTD is an instrument that measures the conductivity, temperature, and depth of water in a continuous profile. This CTD is also fitted with a device that measures fluorescent particles in the water. |
