✦ Synopsis


Assessment of the water table in compressible and/or floating peatland mats requires a remote sensor that can measure simultaneously the elevation of the peat surface and the water level. A simple device, comprising two potentiometers, a float and 'bog shoe' was used to measure the water level and peat surface witin 0.3 mm. The water table (depth of water level relative to the peat surface) was then calculated.

An autonomous system for the recording of the surface water pCO 2 in the Baltic Sea was complemented by a module for continuous O 2 measurements. An optical O 2 sensor was used and in analogy to the determination of the pCO 2 , the pO 2 was determined in the headspace of an equilibrator. By this pro
