Description

SAMI-CO2 pCO2 and Temperature mooring time series data collected on the LEO15. Buzzards Bay and MVCO moorings.

Methods & Sampling

The SAMI-CO2 sampled on a 30 minute interval, a non-absorbing blank measurement was taken every 3.5 days.

Instruments

pCO2 Sensor

Supplied Name: SAMI-CO2 pCO2

Supplied Description:

SAMI-CO2 pCO2 and Temperature mooring time series data collected on the Buzzards Bay mooring

Instrument Type

Generic Name: pCO2 Sensor

Generic Description:

A sensor that measures the partial pressure of CO2 in water (pCO2)

Submersible Autonomous Moored Instrument

Supplied Name: SAMI-CO2 pCO2

Supplied Description:

SAMI-CO2 pCO2 and Temperature mooring time series data collected on the Buzzards Bay mooring

Instrument Type

Generic Name: Submersible Autonomous Moored Instrument

Acronym: SAMI

Generic Description:

The Submersible Autonomous Moored Instrument (SAMI) measures and logs levels of dissolved chemicals in sea and fresh water. It is a plastic cylinder about 6 inches wide and 2 feet long that is self-powered and capable of hourly measurements for up to one year. All data collected are logged to an internal memory chip to be downloaded later. SAMI sensors usually are placed a few feet underwater on permanent moorings, while others on floating drifters sample the water wherever the wind and currents carry them. The instruments have been used by researchers around the globe in a variety of studies since 1999. Dr. Mike DeGrandpre, University of Montana, developed the SAMI between 1990 and 1993 during his postdoctoral work at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (Woods Hole, MA, USA).

Water Temperature Sensor

Supplied Name: SAMI-CO2 pCO2 and Temperature

Supplied Description:

SAMI-CO2 pCO2 and Temperature mooring time series data collected on the Buzzards Bay mooring

Instrument Type

Generic Name: Water Temperature Sensor

Acronym: Water Temp Sensor

Community Identifier: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/L05/current/134/

Generic Description:

General term for an instrument that measures the temperature of the water with which it is in contact (thermometer).
