Term name (PrefLabel)

model prediction of fluorescence

Definition

The value was obtained using a numerical model to simulate fluorescence, which is calculated by simulating the absorption of a substance (pigment, protein) in a cell followed by release in all directions at the emission wavelengths.

We received a request for new S04 terms to describe:
ADCP bottom tracking beam 1
ADCP bottom tracking beam 2
ADCP bottom tracking beam 3
ADCP bottom tracking beam 4

Bottom tracking is a technique to measure platform velocity relative to the seabed using the Doppler shift of an ADCP signal reflected off the seabed.

We will discuss with the requester if this is relevant for Doppler Velocity Logs as well as standard ADCP instruments.

Term name (PrefLabel)

model prediction of Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) output

Definition

The value was obtained using a numerical model to simulate the output of the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS), a 36-band satellite-mounted radiometer measuring from 0.4 um to 14.4 um and at varying spatial resolutions (2 bands at 250 m, 5 bands at 500 m and 29 bands at 1 km).

Term name (PrefLabel)

acoustic doppler current profiler (ADCP) vertical beam

Definition

A vertical beam (sometimes referred to as "5th beam" on 5-beam ADCP designs) measuring the distance to the surface using the echo from short pulses and simple peak estimation algorithms. It is used to estimate wave height and amplitude.

Preferred label
spectrophotometry (internal electrode)
Description
Measurement of the amount of light absorbed by a sample at one or more specified wavelengths, generally within the visible waveband, measured using the internal (primary) electrode of a dual-electrode instrument (e.g. Sea-Bird SeaFET ISFET).

Preferred label
spectrophotometry (external electrode)
Description
Measurement of the amount of light absorbed by a sample at one or more specified wavelengths, generally within the visible waveband, measured using the external (reference) electrode of a dual-electrode instrument (e.g. Sea-Bird SeaFET ISFET).

Term name (PrefLabel)

identification and counting by manual image analysis

Optional

Need new method term for the Hazen colour scale: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pt/Co_scale

The definition of particle sizer as an analytical method for particle size distribution does not mention laser diffraction. Should it? Have all particle sizers used the laser diffraction method up until now? From a quick search this seems to be the case. See e.g.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle-size_distribution

but see also https://www.atascientific.com.au/particle-size-analysers-work/

We propose a new S04 term:

Preferred label: in-situ fluorometer
Definition: An instrument in the field that detects fluorescence emitted when compounds that are of a fluorescent nature absorb light and re-emit a fraction as fluorescence. Instruments can be configured with various excitation wavelengths to detect a variety of specific fluorescent compounds.

Created to distinguish from spectrophotometry which may be done in a lab and not in-situ.
