Ex situ measured oxygen profiles from station PS85/469-2 (HG II) within the HAUSGARTEN area (Fram Strait) in 2014 (POLARSTERN cruise PS85)

During PS85 (in 2014) and PS93.2 (in 2015) sediment cores were recovered by a Multiple corer. Sediment cores were stored at in situ temperature of -0.75°C and used to measure oxygen profiles across the sediment-water interface with needle type optodes (diameter: 50µm, Pyro Science). By using the profiles, the diffusive oxygen uptake was calculated via the decrease in the oxygen concentration in the Diffusive Boundary Layer (DBL). For a further description of the calculation, please check the related publication.2014年的PS85航次与2015年的PS93.2航次中，研究人员通过多管采芯器（Multiple corer）获取了沉积岩芯。所获沉积岩芯均保存于-0.75℃的原位温度环境中，并采用针式光学氧传感器（needle type optodes，直径：50μm，Pyro Science公司）测定了沉积物-水界面的氧剖面分布。基于上述氧剖面数据，通过分析扩散边界层（Diffusive Boundary Layer，DBL）内的氧浓度降幅，计算得到了扩散性耗氧量。有关该计算方法的详细说明，请参阅相关研究文献。
