Water is everywhere. Oceanographers’ research.

During the Arktika-2007 expedition in the Arctic Ocean plenty of experimentation and research is conducted. The expedition programme includes execution of deep ocean stations using the SBE 19+ and the SBE 911+ probing systems, or the Rosetta as oceanographers name it otherwise. These devices are used to measure water temperature and its salinity. Such studies provide data on the structure of sea water in the ocean depth. The scientists will be taking some measurements during the whole expedition up to the landing of the SP-35 drifting station and vice versa.
