Sequoia Application Note SEQ-001-V1 Beam attenuation (c, [m-1]) is a critical inherent optical property (IOP) for oceanographers studying underwater visibility and suspended particles in the water column. Measuring beam attenuation in-situ requires transmissometers...
PyOPIA (Python Ocean Particle Image Analysis) was introduced in 2023. It is an open-source Python library for combing through large amounts of particle image data collected by camera instruments such as LISST-Holo / LISST-Holo2, SilCam, UVP-6 and others....
You can integrate Sequoia’s LISST-Deep or LISST-200X onto a Sea-Bird CTD using the 6-pin auxiliary connector on the LISST connector endcap and a 2-m cable. This will power the instrument via the CTD and output two analog signals, one for mean particle...
The Boycott effect refers to the substantial enhancement of particle sedimentation rates in settling columns that are inclined relative to gravity, compared to an otherwise identical vertical settling column. It was first observed experimentally by A....
Harmful algae. The phrasing itself almost seems it would be an oxymoron, like harmful carrots or something similar. But it is real: Given the right circumstances (light, nutrients), all algae can bloom and some of these can become Harmful Algae Blooms...
