Mukilteo Station Intake pH

Daily measures of pH, temperature and salinity of the seawater intake at the NOAA NWFSC Mukilteo Field Station (802 Front Street, Mukilteo, WA 98275). Seawater is pumped from ~50m off shore at a depth of ~10m. Measurements are taken in 4� diameter flow through animal rearing tank in the �salmon shed� research lab after the water has been sand filtered. The measurement tank contains less than 100g added biomass.

Attribute Summary

		Name	Type	Description
100		Date	Date	local date in month/day/year format.
100		pH	Number	pH measured in the total hydrogen scale using a Honewell Durafet III probe calibrated using tris buffer. (Tris buffer described in http://www.ioccp.org/images/D4standards/Dickson-2007/sop06a.pdf).
100		Temperature	Number	Temperature measured in degrees Celsius from the Durafet III probe. Units for values are Celsius.
