Abstract :
Two related systems have been developed for measuring horizontal and vertical temperature structure in the ocean. One system must be suspended from a ship, with power supplied through the coaxial support cable. The other system is powered by internal batteries and records data in situ with an incremental tape recorder. This system is suspended from a tuned spar buoy, which removes most of the wave-generated vertical motion from the sensors.
