Main Endeavour Field Water sampler Deployed 2023-07-09

The McLane Water Sampler RAS 48-500 (S/N 14730-01) was deployed on 2023-07-09 at Main Endeavour Field. Main Endeavour Field is a vent field located at Endeavour Ridge, where hydrothermal vent systems are observed. This device is a Water sampler. Water samplers are devices that collect physical samples of fluid. They can be remotely triggered, either manually or automatically, with a set schedule. Upon recovery, the fluid-filled containers can be processed to determine their chemical and biological constituents. It was deployed on a fixed 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.
