  • Abstract
    Trends in oceanographic instrumentation over the past 10 years have included the adoption of digital methods, the use of submersibles, precise underwater position fixing and the use of satellites, the latter however being very restricted. The development effort on large data buoys is discussed, and some important recent developments in acoustic techniques are presented. The final section deals with outstanding problems in oceanographic instrumentation, in particular that of current measurement.
