Sequoia’s LISST-200X enjoys popularity amongst microplastics researchers. The instrument has been used to analyze microplastic particle distributions from disposable masks[i] , investigate interactions between oil droplets and microplastics[ii],[iii],[iv]...
Sequoia’s Laser In Situ Scattering and Transmissometry (LISST) particle size analyzers have significantly advanced the understanding of flocculation in aquatic environments. Since the mid-1990s, LISSTs have often replaced or supplemented older technologies...
Kelly Thomas, Biological Oceanographer A longtime user of LISST instruments, the University of Alaska Fairbanks has been using the new, LISST-200X-style 4,000m rated LISST-Deep from Sequoia Scientific, Inc. The LISST-Deep instrument measures in-situ particle...
…Wherein we’ll learn about the use of LISSTs during the Deepwater Horizon accident in 2010 (Part IX can be found here: https://www.sequoiasci.com/article/the-history-of-sequoia-part-ix/) Particle size distribution is important in many areas. When...
O-rings are so ubiquitous today – at least for all of us building underwater instrumentation for the underwater technology industry – that we generally think of them as something that has always been around. But that is not the case. The other night...
