Trust the altimeter… and go the bottom, please 😅

Another day, another CTD on board #JC191 ! On #CTDappreciationDay it is only right we explain how we are currently using the CTD rosette to assist our science onboard the #JC191 National Oceanography Centre and CLASS cruises as part of the #GOSHIP transects! Maria De La Fuente 🚢🌊⛴

To really understand #science you have to put your head in it ! #CTDAppreciationDay #BLOOFINZ #marinescience #marinebiology #ocean ography #ocean

Happy #CTDAppreciationDay . #MthathaBoffin PhD sampling in the Southern Ocean. 🌊 #OceanWomxn

We definitely appreciate the CTD rosette at BATS. Completing 25-30 casts every cruise, not sure how we would study the ocean without it!

Sampling the depths of the ocean with a CTD night drop from #RVInvestigator during CAPSTAN's Inaugural Voyage 2017 #CTDappreciationday CSIRO

Well who'd believe it, it's #CTDAppreciationDay and what better way to celebrate than with a photo of a CTD!

I bet @MahaffeyLab Prof Alessandro Tagliabue have some great photos...

It's #CTDAppreciationDay ! A key instrument in oceanography, measuring Conductivity (Salinity), Temperature and Depth. Often mounted on a rosette for depth profiles, or on moorings to provide a time series; such as these from my RAPID experience in March.

Today we celebrate #CTDAppreciationDay and today I'll present how to boost FAIRness of these datasets in the #IntWinterSchool of ENVRI community LifeWatch ERIC

It’s #CTDappreciationday again! Here’s Trevor from University of Hawaii at Manoa onboard the #RVKiloMoana last summer

Wrangling a CTD and securing it on deck is a team effort and an essential skill in oceanography. Moss Landing Marine Labs students get the job done on the R/V John H. Martin #CTDAppreciationDay

Today is #CTDAppreciationDay ! And Instituto Español de Oceanografía from CSIC shares > 36,000 CTD datasets through SeaDataNet infrastructure. Thanks to many colleagues: sailors, technicians and researchers 👩‍💻👷‍♂️👩‍🔬 who work in very harsh conditions. 📸: Gibraltar Strait (2001) B/O Mytilus

So whoever invented #CTDappreciationDay , let's appreciate we've got some ways to automate this core oceanographic sensing capability. No hate for rosettes, really.

Two beauties! Combining #CTDAppreciationDay with a generously proportioned tabular iceberg! 😍

I took this in the Ross Sea during NBP17-02.

Happy #CTDAppreciationDay ! Thanks to Dr Alice Marzocchi for this photo, taken while deploying the CTD in a fjord in southern Greenland on the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) RV Neil Armstrong R/V Neil Armstrong during the Davis Strait mission in October ‘22. 🌬🌊❄️

is it still #CTDAppreciationDay ? From RAPID cruise on RRS James Cook in 2017 when CTD was recovered from a depth of 5000m after the wire broke.

We very much appreciate the WHOI DSL for rescuing our lost rosette back in 2020. Unbelievably #lucky the Jason Group was aboard and got us back in action within a day. #CTDAppreciationDay #grateful #appreciation

Lovely routine CTD operations in #STOCA 47 (202208) cruise onboard the Instituto Español de Oceanografía's RV Ramon Margalef. #CTDAppreciationDay

I know you all love to see when sharks have a go at our gliders

Here is one from 2020 off the east coast of Australia

The temperature sensor never missed a beat

We sent the conductivity cell back for calibration...

I hope @SeaBirdScience gets a laugh

In honor of #CTDAppreciationDay we combed through the archives for early CTDs, including SBE 9 serial number 1!
