Abstract

Research of the component and concentration of the deep sea organisms is of great value in marine ecosystem science. The deep sea ecosystem is a dynamic system which will change with time and space. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a deep sea in situ organism measurement device. Based on the technology of three-dimensional fluorescence spectrum, a design of a low-power self-contained multi-EX(excitation)-EM(emission) array fluorescence deep sea in situ organism measurement device is presented. The low-power design of the system enables the device for long-term underwater operation.
