Abstract

A continuous flow equilibration method was developed to measure CO in natural waters precisely, accurately, and automatically, at a rate of 4-6 samples/hr. The accuracy of this method was demonstrated by comparing it with an independent head-space method. Operation of the system and data acquisition were automated using a LabView-coded program. Coupled with a continuous surface water sampler, the system was successfully applied to monitoring the diurnal variation of CO in the Sargasso Sea. Original is an abstract.
