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...
There are several ocean science community-developed and supported software resources available for LISST and Hyper users interested in logging and/or processing data in other ways than supported by Sequoia’s standard software: PyOPIA PyOPIA is 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...
A melting pot Researchers in oceanography come to the field from all sides: physicists, biologists, geologists, geographers, hydrologists, mathematicians and many more. As a result, there can be a confounding number of terms for the same thing. An example...
Measuring trace contaminants in water is a challenging task. By definition, trace contaminants appear in very low concentrations. Accurate measurements require collection and filtration of large volumes of water with suspended particles (sediment) in...
