KC - Mini Micro Profilers with Microsensors
A novel portable instrument has been designed for in-situ microsensor measurements. The micro profiler, which can be equipped with microsensors for measurements of oxygen, pH, sulphide (S -- or H2S) and temperature, is ideal for a wide range of applications including: Oxygen respiration. Benthic primary production. Quantification of sulphide oxidation and sulphate reduction by measurement with a sulphide (gas or ion) microsensor for use in bio-films and sediments.
Profiling measurements can be carried out with a spatial resolution of 50 micron in numerous locations including:
- At the sediment-water interface (from tidal flats to 100 m water depth).
- In bio-films, for studying the transformation of organic matter.
- Under ice, for studying respiration and primary production of ice-algae.
Weight, in air 10 kg
Weight, in water 8 kg
Total height 1.0 m
Distance between feet 0.75 m
The mini microprofilers are developed in cooperation with -
