Equipment Used: Conductivity, Temperature and Depth (CTD) Logger/Probe, Rosette, Flow-Through Seawater Analyzer (pH) , Flow-Through Seawater Analyzer (pCO2), GPS , Sonde sensor
Information to be Derived: Sea water dissolved inorganic carbon, alkalinity, CO2, pH, temperature, salinity, chlorophyll, dissolved oxygen, oxygen and carbon stable isotopes.
Summary of Activity and Data Gathered:
Staff: Paul Knorr
Affiliate Staff:
Notes: Additional Equipment: Also using two new devices, the AFT-pH, AFT-CO2, and laptop. These are two flow-thru sea water analyzers that measure pH and pCO2 values every 15 minutes.
Location:
Offshore transect from Panama City to De Soto Canyon, FL and from Mobile Bay, AL to De Soto Canyon. Also transects from De Soto Canyon to St. Petersburg.
