Bubble Size Distributions in Coastal Seas:

Bubble size distributions have been measured with an optical system that is based on imaging of a small sample volume with a CCD camera system, and processing of the images to obtain the size of individual bubbles in the diameter range from 30 to lOOO^m. This bubble measuring system is deployed from...

Description
Summary:Bubble size distributions have been measured with an optical system that is based on imaging of a small sample volume with a CCD camera system, and processing of the images to obtain the size of individual bubbles in the diameter range from 30 to lOOO^m. This bubble measuring system is deployed from a buoy which is either self-contained or which is connected to a ship or platform and uses electrical cables to receive power and transmit data. Results are presented from bubble measurements at the North Sea, the North Atlantic and the Baltic. The Influence of meteorological parameters on the bubble size distributions and the bubble concentrations is discussed.
