Abstract: For timescales much greater than the local buoyancy period, the buoyant response of a RAFOS float is virtually dictated by its compressibility. As the compressibility of a thermally inert RAFOS float increases from zero, ...

Abstract: eagent-free optical nitrate sensors [in situ ultraviolet spectrophotometer (ISUS)] can be used to detect nitrate throughout most of the ocean. Although the sensor is a relatively high-power device when operated continuously ...
