Depth resolved detection of oceanographic variables in the St. Lawrence estuary using a laser fluorosensor: instrument characteristics and first results†
Abstract:A 64-channel Laser Environmental Airborne Fluorosensor (LEA F) system for sea surface oil detection was modified for continuous depth-resolved detection of gelbstolT and chlorophyll a spectral fluorescence, and water Raman scattering. The system was successfully tested during shipborne and airborne experiments in the SI. Lawrence Estuary. System performance was studied, and the best integration time to optimize the signal to noise ratio (SIN) was determined using dilTerent statistical procedures such as the ge… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
