CastAway-CTD Overview and Demo in San Diego Bay

Did you miss the live event on our social media channels? Here's the rebroadcast of Dr. Xue Fan showing you how to use this popular handheld CTD, and how it might be used in conjunction with ADCPs for data correction.

The CastAway®-CTD is a lightweight, easy-to-use instrument designed for quick and accurate conductivity, temperature, and depth profiles. Each cast is automatically referenced with time and location using its built-in GPS receiver. The CastAway software displays profiles of the casts in addition to mapping the locations of the data collection points. Data integrate directly with RiverSurveyor Live and HYPACK® software, and can also be exported to MATLAB® for applying sound speed corrections.
