Oceanographic Studies: from instrumental to practical
Organizadores: Ana Beatriz Tuma,Beatrice Padovani Ferreira, Beatriz Alves, Eduardo Resende Secchi, Manuela Bassoi, Sílvia Dotta
An oceanographic research cruise is characterized by being multi and interdisciplinary, covering data surveys in the four branches of Oceanography: Biological, Physical, Chemical and Geological, in which collection devices ranging from those considered simpler are used - such as a thermometer – even the most sophisticated ones – such as CTD and echosounder for fishing and geological prospecting. Therefore, keeping these characteristics and possibilities in mind, this book was prepared to give educators, researchers, technicians and students in areas linked to studies in Marine Sciences an overview of instruments and equipment, their characteristics, functioning and care in their maintenance before, during and after boarding an oceanographic research vessel.
