LOPC Order from Dalhousie University

  10/12/2009
ODIM Brooke Ocean has received an order for the delivery of an ODIM LOPC to the Biology Department of Dalhousie University. The ODIM LOPC will be used by Dr. Tamara Romanuk for measuring detailed size and shape outlines of zooplankton thereby allowing for the compositional structure of communities to be determined. It will be used for both preserved and live plankton samples.

 

The resolution was specified to be 40 microns with an average operating profile of 100 microns up to ~5mm (or lower resolution). The ODIM LOPC being delivered will function in a laboratory environment for use with a turn-key circulation system in order to analyze both discrete and online (continuous) samples.

 

The ODIM LOPCTM is the next generation in plankton profiling. The LOPC's high speed processing and improved detection plane provides detection counts at higher resolutions and higher concentrations with lower coincidence. They system can be installed on various towbody scenarios as well as on the ODIM MVPTM multi sensor free fall fish, enabling vertical real-time water column profiling while underway at speeds up to 12 knots.

Hydrographic Survey of Riverbed Erosion

Members of the US Geological Survey were filmed while out on the Missouri River at Williston, North Dakota, USA, performing a hydrographic survey to monitor the state of riverbed erosion. They were using a multibeam echo sounder which transmits sound energy and analyses the return signal (echo) that has bounced off the riverbed or other objects. Multibeam sonars emit sound waves from directly beneath a ship's hull to produce fan-shaped coverage of the riverbed. 


Gauge height at the Williston gauge was approximately 27.65 feet when this video was taken. Additional information about the USGS streamgauge at Williston is available at http://waterdata.usgs.gov/nd/nwis?program=nwisman&site_no=06330000
