Testing and Refinement of Long Pathlength Liquid Core Waveguide Sensors for Autonomous In-Situ Analysis of the Upper Ocean

Abstract

This research project is directed toward the development of optoelectronic devices for measurement of key variables that influence oceanic biogeochemistry. The devices will have extraordinary sensitivity and versatility, and will be capable of rapid measurements in conjunction with adaptive sampling procedures, or long-term ocean measurements within large-scale ocean monitoring networks.
