Abstract :
In order to meet growing demands for high performance oceanographic instrumentation with long term stability, specialised sensors have been developed which expand the role of built-in test equipment to encompass self calibration. This paper describes recent advances made in the design of fluorimeters and conductivity/temperature/depth (CTD) sensors
