Commercially available oxygen optodes for oceanographic application were introduced by AADI in 2002. The long-term stability (years) and reliability of these sensors have revolutionized oxygen measurements and several thousand are in use in applications ranging from streams to the deep sea, from fish farms to waste water, from polar ice to hydrothermal vents. Below find examples of published scientific investigations in which AADI optodes have played a central role.
The basic technique of the AADI oxygen optode and an evaluation of its functioning in aquatic environments were presented in Tengberg et al (2006).
Other studies include use on autonomous Argo floats Joos et al (2003), Körtzinger et al (2004 and 2005), Johnson et al. (2010) and gliders (Nicholoson et al., 2008), long-term monitoring in coastal environments with high bio-fouling (Martini et al., 2007), on coastal buoys (Jannasch et al., 2008), on Ferry box systems (Hydes et al., 2009), on cabled CTD instruments for profiling down to 6000 m including suggestions for improved calibrations, pressure effect and compensation for slow response (Uchida et al., 2008) and in chemical sensor networks (Johnson et al., 2007).
Drazen et al. (2005) presented a novel technique to measure respiration rates of deep sea fish and Sommer et al (2008) described an automatic system to regulate oxygen levels and to measure sediment-water fluxes during in-situ sediment incubation at vent sites.
Also Pakhomova et al (2007) and Almroth et al. (2009) used the same type of optodes on autonomous landers to perform sediment-water incubations, with and without the introduction of sediment resuspension.
In Wesslander at al (2011) the dynamics and coupling of carbon dioxide (CO2) and oxygen was investigated in coastal Baltic Sea waters and McGillis et al (2011) described a novel method to assess the productivity of a coral reef using boundary layer and enclosure methods.
