Tsawwassen - Swartz Bay Ferry Route Coloured Dissolved Organic Matter Deployed 2003-09-12

The WET Labs Wetstar CDOM Fluorometer 817 was deployed on 2003-09-12 on Tsawwassen - Swartz Bay Ferry Route. This ferry route goes between Tsawwassen terminal in Vancouver, BC and the Swartz Bay terminal, Victoria BC. This device is a Coloured Dissolved Organic Matter. Coloured Dissolved Organic Matter (CDOM), or Chromophoric, is a component of dissolved organic matter (DOM) that is measured optically. CDOM fluorometers measure the intensity and wavelength distribution of an emission spectrum after excitation by a particular spectrum of light. These parameters detect the amount of CDOM, because it absorbs short wavelengths ranging from blue to ultraviolet. It was deployed on a mobile platform. Data from this deployment were archived and made available through Ocean Networks Canada's Oceans 3.0 digital infrastructure, with quality assurance and derived data products following established practices.

WET Labs Wetstar CDOM荧光计817于2003年9月12日部署在Tsawwassen-Swartz Bay渡轮航线。该航线连接不列颠哥伦比亚省温哥华的Tsawwassen码头与不列颠哥伦比亚省维多利亚的Swartz Bay码头。该设备用于检测有色溶解有机物（Coloured Dissolved Organic Matter）。有色溶解有机物（CDOM，又称发色溶解有机物）是溶解有机物（DOM）的一个光学可测组分。CDOM荧光计通过特定光谱激发后，测量发射光谱的强度与波长分布。这些参数可用于检测CDOM的含量，因其能吸收从蓝光到紫外光的短波波长。该设备部署于移动平台。此次部署获取的数据已归档，并通过加拿大海洋网络（Ocean Networks Canada）的Oceans 3.0数字基础设施开放获取，其质量保证与衍生数据产品均遵循既定规范。
