Visionary engineer Neil Brown started the CTD development journey in the late 1950’s. He wanted to understand ocean salinity at depth in real-time. For that purpose he developed methods using measured seawater conductivity and temperature and pressure which resulted in the first modern conductivity-temperature-depth (CTD) sensor. Today even the smallest robotic platform can accurately measure fundamental ocean properties.
