An OS316 CTD and a Voltammetric In-Situ Profiler (VIP). The CTD is equipped with sensors for conductivity (salinity), temperature, pressure (depth), oxygen, pH, and eh (redox potential). The VIP allows us to do in-situ voltammetric measurements of truly dissolved concentrations of copper, cadmium, lead, and zinc (and potentially further metals with future method development) at depths up to 6000m. With these measurements, we will be able to trace particle plumes in the ocean and complement our laboratory measurements of trace metal concentration and speciation. The instruments will be fitted for deployments in the MARUM trace metal rosette (TMR) to acquire water column profiles as well as for independent deployments for example on seafloor landers for timeseries measurements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/andrea-koschinsky.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_20260127_154439125_HDR_2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/andrea-koschinsky.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_20260127_154439125_HDR_2-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3870\" srcset=\"https:\/\/andrea-koschinsky.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_20260127_154439125_HDR_2-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/andrea-koschinsky.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_20260127_154439125_HDR_2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/andrea-koschinsky.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_20260127_154439125_HDR_2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/andrea-koschinsky.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_20260127_154439125_HDR_2-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/andrea-koschinsky.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_20260127_154439125_HDR_2-2048x1366.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/andrea-koschinsky.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_20260127_154439125_HDR_2-18x12.jpg 18w, https:\/\/andrea-koschinsky.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_20260127_154439125_HDR_2-1200x800.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/andrea-koschinsky.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/20241219-_DSC0794.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\" src=\"https:\/\/andrea-koschinsky.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/20241219-_DSC0794-1024x684.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3868\" srcset=\"https:\/\/andrea-koschinsky.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/20241219-_DSC0794-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/andrea-koschinsky.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/20241219-_DSC0794-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/andrea-koschinsky.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/20241219-_DSC0794-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/andrea-koschinsky.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/20241219-_DSC0794-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/andrea-koschinsky.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/20241219-_DSC0794-2048x1367.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/andrea-koschinsky.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/20241219-_DSC0794-18x12.jpg 18w, https:\/\/andrea-koschinsky.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/20241219-_DSC0794-1200x801.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Purchased through our project DSSII, we have recently acquired two new instruments to expand our capabilities for in-situ measurements during research cruises.
