CTDs are lowered by a cable into the ocean to take measurements of ocean salinity, temperature, and depth, and to collect water samples. The operative phrase there is "into the ocean." Launching the CTD safely required a large-enough pool of water, but chunks of sea ice kept clogging the works. George Tupper finally found his pot of gold (a large pool of open water) at the end of the fogbow.
