DEFINITION

  • An eXpendable BathyThermograph (XBT) is a probe that is dropped from a ship and measures the temperature as it falls through the water. A resistance in the head of the probe and a very thin twin-wire, connecting the probe to the equipment on the ship, compose the electronic circuit for measuring the water temperature. The probe is designed to fall at a known rate, so that the depth of the temperature profile can be inferred from the time since it enters the water. (en)
  • Denizlerde 150-300 m derinliğe indirilerek derinlikle sıcaklık ölçmek için tek kullanımlı ölçüm aygıtı. (tr)
