Instrument: Pump
A pump is a device that moves fluids (liquids or gases), or sometimes slurries, by mechanical action. Pumps can be classified into three major groups according to the method they use to move the fluid: direct lift, displacement, and gravity pumps
A "Little Giant" brand pump was used to retrieve water from depth for animal culture. This goal is to have large amounts of water of the appropriate salinity, DIC/TA and temperature to replicate the conditions the animals experience in situ. To achieve this, six "pteropod ptransporter" garbage cans were brought onboard and held in a plastic cage.
