PSI Instruments are being used on moorings, aboard ships, and in laboratories around the world.
Stability in a Sea of Change
Pro-Oceanus Systems Inc. provides world-leading technology in our line of advanced dissolved gas sensors. Each of our instruments has been developed to ensure stability and accuracy in a package that can be integrated easily for use in laboratories, deployed on moorings, gliders, buoys, and in underway mode on shipboard.Why measure dissolved gases?
Measuring dissolved gases in natural waters provides critical information for monitoring biological production, understanding the dynamics of greenhouse gases, surveying the distribution of pollutants, and determining the behavior of gases in sensitive ecosystems.The oceans are a critical component of the earth's climate system. While they help regulate climate, there is also real concern that they will be affected by climate change. As the oceans are an integral component of the earth's biological cycle, changes may disrupt their role as a rich source of food and other resources and impact their ability to help regulate the atmosphere's chemical composition.
At this time of increased environmental awareness, both scientists and government institutions recognize the importance of understanding how the oceans perform their functions and the need for obtaining base-line data. Equally important is long-term monitoring to determine how the oceans are changing as the climate changes.
PSI is committed to providing superior dissolved gas sensors to the scientists conducting this vital research.
