Abstract

Achievements in development of the technique of operational measurements of the water structure in the bottom layer, based on vertical profiling of the water column using standard multiparameter probes operated with an armored cable in a free fall mode from surface to bottom are presented. Instead of cable winches, simpler devices operating on the principle of longline houler have been proposed. Full-scale tests have shown that the new universal Underway CTD system is not inferior to its counterparts and has prospects for further development.
