Field deployments, flume experiments, and a 2D wave model have been used to identify the characteristics of Clark-type oxygen microelectrodes and measurement parameters that could possibly bias eddy correlation (EC) flux measurements made under waves. Eddy correlation is a technique adapted from atmospheric sciences that couples concurrent and co-located velocity...
A benthic microbial fuel cell (BMFC) is an electrochemical device that
generates current from the redox gradient at the sediment-water interface. Early
prototypes had anodes buried in anoxic sediments and cathodes in overlying water.
The BMFCs described in this dissertation are based on a chamber design that enables
the use...
