Hardware correction of dynamic errors in measuring salinity by usingCTD-systems

We study the procedures aimed at decreasing the dynamic errors of the evaluation of salinity with the help ofCTD-probes by reducing the difference between the amplitude-phase characteristics of temperature and conductivity sensors. This is attained by introducing a delay between the times of scanning the sensors. To make the amplitude characteristics as close as possible, we propose to use temperature sensors distributed in the direction of probing. We present the procedures used to determine the optimal parameters of temperature sensors and the length of time delay. The advantages of the proposed method are demonstrated by analyzing a numerical example. Translated by Peter V. Malyshev and Dmitry V. Malyshev
