Suspended particle characteristics from a glider integrated LISST sensor (original) (raw)

OCEANS 2018 MTS/IEEE Charleston, 2018

Abstract

A collaborative project to integrate a Laser In-Situ Scattering and Transmissometry (LISST) into a Slocum glider was recently completed. This integrated system is capable of measuring particle size, concentration, and beam attenuation, among other standard LISST measurements from a single profiling sensor onboard an autonomous underwater glider coincident with a suite of additional integrated sensors. These integrated LISST-glider sensors provide the unique opportunity to measure suspended particle properties persistently at single locations or survey regional domains, and enable sampling during extreme events such as hurricanes or coastal storms. In this study we detail the sensor integration as well as preliminary data from instrument field tests.
