Abstract

The complex is intended to perform continuous measurements of concentrations of chlorophyll a and dissolved organic substances by the laser induced fluorescence method, evaluate a state of the photosynthetic system of phytoplankton cells, and record readings of the CO2 gas analyzer, sensors of sea water saltiness, pH, and temperature, and solar illumination meter. The mobility of the complex ensures a possibility of its operation on different ships and under stationary conditions. The configuration of the complex can be promptly changed for solving the current problem by promptly adding or replacing separate devices and sensors of the complex, as well as the software integrating all devices and data into the system. It is possible to use standard, vibration-resistant laboratory equipment, since the housing of the designed device ensures protection against the marine environment. Results of in-situ measurements performed in the Peter the Great Gulf (Sea of Japan) in 2012 are given.
