A novel approach to estimate non‐algal particle absorption for improved retrieval of pigment concentrations in coastal waters

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Phytoplankton play a central role in ocean biogeochemistry and understanding their composition and variability is critical for monitoring marine ecosystem dynamics. Continuous spectrophotometric measurements (using a Seabird Sci. AC‐S) along ship tracks enable high‐resolution measurements of particle spectral absorption (apλ$$ {a}_p\left ...

Sodium sulfite can reliably induce chemical hypoxia without toxic effects in the model sea anemone species, Exaiptasia diaphana

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Climate change is accelerating the deoxygenation of aquatic ecosystems, so understanding its effects on biological processes is increasingly critical. An emerging method for inducing hypoxia during experimentation utilizes sodium sulfite (SSI) to scavenge oxygen; however, it remains unclear if hypoxia‐inducing concentrations of SSI are toxic ...

Evaluation of methods for the analysis of oxygen and carbon dioxide in water, sediment, litter, and soil

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Choosing an appropriate analyzer to measure concentrations of oxygen (O2) and carbon dioxide (CO2) during biogeochemical cycling studies can be difficult, considering the range of options available. While several studies examine the abilities of specific analyzers, comparison of multiple analyzers and environmental sample types is lacking.

Sound speed contributions of solutes in water

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding sound speed in natural waters is utilized in applications such as echo sounding, side scanning, temperature field tomography, evaluating compressibility and thermodynamic properties. While established approaches, such as the UNESCO formula and TEOS‐10 package, describe sound speed in oceanic waters, the information about the ...

Optimizing stereo‐baited remote underwater video sampling efficiency in turbid waters through horizontal field of view adjustments

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Accurate length data underpin many ecological and physiological analyses, from assessing population size structure to parameterizing biomass and bioenergetic models. Stereo‐baited remote underwater video systems (stereo‐BRUVs) provide a non‐intrusive means of collecting these data in situ, supporting management and conservation of motile ...

Flow cytometric phytoplankton concentration and optical properties across instruments and laboratories

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Flow cytometry measures the optical properties of individual cells and has become essential for enumerating and characterizing marine phytoplankton. Yet systematic comparison of measurements across instruments remains limited, hampering data comparison across laboratories and long‐term time series.

A multiscale approach to water quality variables in a river ecosystem

open access: yesEcosphere, 2020
Monitoring select ecosystem variables across time and interpreting the collected data are essential components of ecosystem assessment supporting management. Increasingly affordable sensors and computational capacity have made very large dataset assembly

Itaipu reservoir limnology: eutrophication degree and the horizontal distribution of its limnological variables

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Biology
Reservoirs are manmade habitats, intermediate between rivers and lakes, presenting distinct hydrological and morphometric characteristics, with differential mean water residence time.

River‐Scale Evaluation of a Floating LED Light Array for Behavioral Guidance of American Eel

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Exploiting the sensory physiology of migratory fishes to guide them away from hazards like hydroelectric turbines is of interest to regulatory agencies and hydropower operators to achieve conservation and management goals. Here we describe a river‐scale experiment where out‐migrating adult American eel (Anguilla rostrata) were tracked ...
