Description and Evaluation of Methods for Determining Incident Solar Radiation, Submarine Daylight, Chlorophyll An, and Primary Production (Classic Reprint) - Couverture souple
Synopsis
Learn the practical methods scientists use to measure energy, pigments, and primary production in ocean waters. This edition explains how incubations, samplers, and spectrophotometry come together to reveal ocean productivity.
Inside, you’ll find detailed descriptions of sample collection, treatment, and analysis used on ocean-going research programs. The text covers incubator setups, in situ techniques, and the way researchers compare methods to ensure unbiased estimates of in situ productivity. It also explains how chlorophyll a is measured and how spectral data support interpretations of plankton biomass.
The material is grounded in lab and field practices from multiple cruises, including how equipment is prepared, how samples are filtered, and how data are calibrated and checked for accuracy. Readers will gain a clear sense of the challenges and decisions scientists face when linking pigment measurements to photosynthetic rates and to broader oceanographic findings.
- How different incubation methods are used to estimate productivity and compare results
- Techniques for collecting and processing chlorophyll samples, including spectrophotometric calculation
- Instrumentation and procedures for measuring light absorption, radiance, and pigment content
- Approaches to calculating errors, depth assignments, and the reliability of extrapolations
Ideal for readers of oceanography and marine biology who want a practical view of measuring light, pigments, and production at sea.

Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book describes the author's detailed account of four methods used by the Scripps Tuna Oceanography Research Program to measure incident solar radiation, submarine daylight, chlorophyll, and primary production in the eastern tropical Pacific. These methods were used on multiple cruises and expeditions from 1956-1962, and are described in this book along with a partial evaluation of their statistical reliability. The author examines the relation between observed daily radiation totals and similar totals computed from four climatological equations which use cloud-cover observations, before going on to discuss the submarine irradiance, including definitions and instrumentations, as well as experimental setups and calculations. Additionally, the author discusses the optical depth determinations, including the diffuse attenuation coefficient, and the chlorophyll, inclusive of sample collection, sample treatment, pigment extraction, and determination of chlorophyll concentration. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781333207953_0
