And what better way to celebrate it than to combine it with some #WaveWatching?⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ First: A CTD is the most important oceanographic instrument, measuring Conductivity (to calculate salinity), Temperature, and Depth (well, pressure, really, but CTP would sound weird...), and it's been an important and fun part of every single oceanographic #ResearchCruise I've been ever part of. So obviously I appreciate it very much! Especially when combined with my favourite hobby, so let's check out the waves in this picture:⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ See the waves that radiate from where the rosette frame is breaking the surface? And the rings created by drops falling from the crane above? Plus I love how shrunken the rosette looks due to the refraction of light at the air-water interface!⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ #LetsGoWaveWatching #KommWirGuckenWasser #PhysicalOceanography #Oceanography #LifeAtSea #OceanScience #ScienceCruise #PhysicsIsAwesome$
