| Zusammenfassung |
These days, many marine autonomous environment monitoring networks are set
up in the world. These systems take advantage of existing superstructures
such as offshore platforms, lightships, piers, breakwaters or are placed on
specially designed buoys or underwater oceanographic structures. These
systems commonly use various sensors to measure parameters such as dissolved
oxygen, turbidity, conductivity, pH or fluorescence. Emphasis has to be put
on the long term quality of measurements, yet sensors may face very
short-term biofouling effects. Biofouling can disrupt the quality of the
measurements, sometimes in less than a week.
Many techniques to prevent biofouling on instrumentation are listed and
studied by researchers and manufacturers. Very few of them are implemented
on instruments and of those very few have been tested in situ on oceanographic
sensors for deployment of at least one or two months.
This paper presents a review of techniques used to protect against
biofouling of in situ sensors and gives a short list and description of promising
techniques. |
