Definition | A submersible, self-contained sensor that uses laser diffraction to measure particle size and concentration in-situ. It is a LISST-200X sensor that is specially designed to integrate into Teledyne Webb Research G2 and G3 Slocum gliders. The sensor produces a collimated laser beam (670 nm) that illuminates particles in the water. The angular distribution of forward-scattered laser light is measured using concentric ring detectors. The optics head is the only item of the sensor exposed to the outside of the glider. It is depth rated to 600 m. The instrument has an optical path length of 2.5 cm and measures particles over the size range of 1.0-500 um in 36 size classes. |
