B.2.3 DERIVED PARAMETERS
Derived parameters like: Salinity, Sound Speed, Pressure to Depth Conversion, Theta, Sigma T, etc. are
obtained using the algorithms described in the UNESCO technical papers in marine science no. 44
"Algorithms for computation of fundamental properties of sea water".
B.4 SENSOR LOGICAL CODE TABLE
The following logical code table shows the most common sensors and derived parameters. A complete
list of the sensor logical codes can be found in the “Ocean Seven 3xx Data Transmission Protocol”
