Keep your OpenCTD well organized. The CTD, an acronym for conductivity, temperature, and depth, is a crucial instrument in oceanography that helps scientists uncover hidden patterns beneath the ocean's surface. Beneath the ocean's surface lies a complex world of swirling eddies, temperature boundaries, layers of high and low salinity, changing densities, and other physical characteristics invisible to observers floating on its surface. By using a CTD, oceanographers can reveal these patterns. The CTD is a vital tool in oceanographic research. CTDs are costly, which creates a barrier for researchers with limited budgets, scientists from developing nations, citizen oceanographers, and students of all levels who want to learn more about their local coasts and waterways. They cannot afford the expensive equipment needed for this type of research. The OpenCTD is a low-cost, open-source CTD suitable for both educators and scientists. It's built using accessible parts and powered by an Arduino-based microcontroller. Source codes and building instructions are freely available online. The device is accurate enough for scientific research and can be constructed for approximately $300. Its effectiveness goes up to 200 meters depth. This is the hardware tray and wire guide for the OpenCTD. Full Project Guides can be found at the Oceanography for Everyone Github Repository.
