Aquation has recently released a prototype version of its new Submersible Photosynthesis-Respiration System. This system measures the rate of production or consumption of oxygen in a submerged chamber, which provides a good proxy for photosynthesis and respiration rates. The System is only designed to operate two chambers, and is therefore easy to carry, setup and deploy. No…
