FATA - Fluorescence And Turbidity Analyser

The Fluorescence And Turbidity Analyser (FATA) is a device that can be mounted on motor boats for ground-truth sampling at higher spatial resolution than is possible for discrete point-like sampling. FATA is basically composed of a hydraulic device (a pipe) continuously pumping the water from 0.5 m depth into the Turner Design Scufa-II fluorometer/turbidimeter and a GPS, both logged by a Campbell data-logger.
