長島町でDiving-PAMを使って調査 (Field survey of Eckloniopsis)

修士1年のS田君が6月に続いて長島町で調査を行いました。Diving-PAMを持って水深20mまで光合成を測定していきます。
MS student, Soku, conducted his monthly survey at Nagashima Island. He used the Diving-PAM to measure the quantum yield of Eckloniopsis radicosa



ここは潮の流れが複雑で,表面と底では流れが違いました。潮流が早く,水深15mで調査を打ち切りました。安全第一です。
Actually, the kelp community is absolutely beautiful, and here is good place for research. However, we've been sometimes worried about the tidal current at the ebb tide. Indeed, today, we had to cancel a part of the measurement at the depth of 20 m.
