CTD data collected via sensors mounted to the plankton sampler provide an oblique or 'V' shaped profile of the water column. For these surveys, the CTD sensor used was either a Guildline or Falmouth Scientific Instruments Integrated CTD. Instruments were usually calibrated where possible before each survey, in a water bath for temperature and using a pressure test vessel for pressure. Calibrations for salinity were performed with reference to salinity samples collected. Plankton analysis data are available for most surveys under separate records. MEDIN 3.1.1
