NTR: AML Plus X

[mcuthill]

Note: this is a term that was requested in the past but never quite came to fruition, probably due to the modular nature of the device. While functionally the Plus X is usually deployed as a CTD + secondary/aux sensors, technically the base Plus X has no hard-mounted sensors and therefore could become several different device types. Therefore I'm suggesting the instrument type be classified as 'data logger' and the particular sensor array captured elsewhere in user metadata. I welcome any expert insight into the matter.

Thank you for your patience. Agreed - this seems more like a data logger which are now acceptable in L22. We have created a new term for you:

AML Oceanographic X Series Plus X data logger (http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/L22/current/TOOL1410/)

Please note, it may take up to 24 hrs for the new term to appear on our web services.
