To obtain results for various physical, chemical and biological parameters, a CTD
Rosette consisting of 6 Niskin Bottles and further probes recording for temperature,
salinity and fluorescence was used. Four Niskin bottles were used at two sites, and
three used at one site, at each site one Niskin bottle was closed at the deepest
point, and one at the surface. The other one or two bottles were closed at points
of interest within the water column (according to the data gathered on the CTD descent).
Using the on-
The ADCP was switched on upon arrival at the station, and off when leaving the station, to get a temporal profile of current. The ADCP was also used to obtain a spatial transect between stations.
