Measurements underway or on stationEnvironmental Monitoring
We plan and operate active fluorescence surveys for harmful algal blooms, hydrocarbon releases, wastewater outfalls, and suspended matter. Work can cover coastal, estuarine, or inland waters at sub-metre along-track resolution.
Applications
Questions the survey can address
The method is selected for the site, target parameters, platform, and reporting requirement
-
Harmful algal blooms
Phycocyanin and phycoerythrin returns help distinguish cyanobacterial blooms from surrounding phytoplankton and map their spatial extent
-
Hydrocarbon spills
Rapid-response surveys use fluorescence signatures to distinguish crude oil and refined products from biological background at ppb sensitivity
-
Sewage and wastewater plumes
Optical tracers are used to map outfall plumes in support of bathing-water assessment and Marine Strategy Framework Directive monitoring
-
Suspended sediment dynamics
Quantitative TSM surveys document dredging areas, port basins, and coastal sediment transport at sub-metre spacing along the survey line
