Instrument: Sea-Bird SBE 45 MicroTSG Thermosalinograph
A small externally powered, high-accuracy instrument, designed for shipboard determination of sea surface (pumped-water) conductivity and temperature. It is constructed of plastic and titanium to ensure long life with minimum maintenance. It may optionally be interfaced to an external SBE 38 hull temperature sensor.
Temperature and salinity were determined by a Sea-bird SBE-45 thermosalinograph (Sea-bird electronics, Bellevue, WA).
