dc.description.abstract | Information on salinity and temperature distributions is important in the study of thermohaline systems. In order to overcome difficulties associated with existing measurement methods, a miniature fiber‐optic probe has been developed. The probe, which is capable of local quasisteady and fluctuating salinity and temperature measurements, is easily constructed, calibrated, and utilized. Probe measurements compare favorably with results obtained using a slant‐wire shadowgraph technique and clearly show local phenomena in double‐diffusive thermohaline systems. | en_US |
