Salinity and Temperature of the Ocean

Title
Salinity and Temperature of the Ocean
Abstract

1. ARGO profiles- Array for Real time Geographic Observations (ARGO) are autonomous instruments which are programmed to collect in-situ salinity and temperature of ocean where they exist. ARGO can profile temperature and salinity up to 2000m depth. ARGOs are released in to ocean by different ocean rim countries for research purposes and NARA (Sri Lanka) released 4 in 2013. First ARGO was recorded within Sri Lankan EEZ at 21/08/2002. From that day, number of ARGOs recorded gradually increas...
