The bathythermograph, or BT, also known as the Mechanical Bathythermograph, or MBT; [1] is a device that holds a temperature sensor and a transducer to detect changes in water temperature versus depth down to a depth of approximately 285 meters (935 feet).
She headed the Bathythermograph Unit beginning in February 1957, analyzing ocean temperature changes at various depths, over time and space, using computers to manage the large data sets involved. [ 9 ] [ 10 ] [ 11 ] Her work had applications in tracking submarines, tuna migration, and hurricanes, among other fields. [ 8 ]
