Temperature, Depth, Sound Velocity
The Expendable Bathythermograph is used by scientists to provide an ocean temperature versus depth profile. Useful for oceanographic research, the XBT does not restrict ship mobility. The Expendable Sound Velocimeter obtains accurate sound velocity profiles for the support of ASW operations, mine countermeasure operations, and oceanographic research.
