Summary of measurements |
- -The fixed station was at 43 degrees 24.61 min North and 7 degrees 51.68 min East.
-Maxicore coring (using multitube corers): "monthly" biological and biogeochemical monitoring of the water-sediment interface at fixed stations. In 1996, 11 coring operations were performed, spread out over 7 sampling periods. -Particle traps: continuous monitoring of particulate organic matter 4 metres from seabed. In 1996, 5 moorings were recovered. All of them had functioned. -Benthic chambers: "seasonal respiration" measurements at water-sediment interface (SCOC = sediment Community Oxygen Consumption). The benthic chamber was deployed on 14/11/96 and took measurements during 48 hours. -Due to bad weather, it could only be recovered one month later (17/12/96). -Due to bad weather, it could only be recovered one month later (17/12/96).
