Instruments

McLane Pump

Supplied Description:

Instrument Type

Generic Name: McLane Pump

Generic Description:

McLane pumps sample large volumes of seawater at depth. They are attached to a wire and lowered to different depths in the ocean. As the water is pumped through the filter, particles suspended in the ocean are collected on the filters. The pumps are then retrieved and the contents of the filters are analyzed in a lab.

Parameters

Date and time formats are described in python strftime() syntax.
