SUPR-REMUS

Caption

The modified SUPR sampler fits in the front section of a REMUS 600, with additional foam and weights for buoyancy and trim. A flow meter measured seawater volume, which was pumped through external ports at predetermined times, and multiple mesh filters retained the plankton from separate samples.
