CRIMP CO 2 CO 2, O 2 sensors, CTD measuremnts at 3 hours frequency Multiparameter sondes (Cond., T, pH, DO, Chl-a, Turbidity) at 10 minute frequency ADV, ADCP, thermistor chains (McManus/Ostrander) Climate from NWS, CI Iridium telemetry of buoy data to NOAA/PMEL (once a day) ßSynoptic water column profiles (chl-a, cond/sal, DO, pH, turbidity) ßWater samples for lab analyses (nutrients, chl-a, pigments)

5. CRIMP-CO 2 : Objectives To understand how land derived inputs impact coastal water quality (12+ year record of local funding associated with this objective) To understand how land-derived nutrients and storm plumes fuel coastal water column productivity To determine how productivity, calcification, and physical forcing control air-sea exchange of CO 2 in Kaneohe Bay. To determine how seasonal changes in runoff affect annual CO 2 and O 2 gas exchange fluxes and the associated potential acidification of bay waters Now shifting emphasis toward “ocean acidification” issues by examining calcification and dissolution of carbonates across the barrier reef of Kaneohe Bay (collaboration with M. Atkinson)

6. CRIMP-CO 2 1 st buoy of NOAA/PMEL coastal CO2 monitoring program deployed Nov 2005 (four buoys exist now) System to be moved to barrier reef of Kaneohe Bay (5/08) for calcification/dissolution studies Part of three buoy network in Hawaii (two currently being built as part of HIPOOIS network for deployment on S. Shore of Oahu) Can be a platform for testing of new sensor technology Can be a platform for experiments by collaborating scientists… Use of platforms for undergraduate research and training Training of operational oceanographers N.S.Buoy Stations

7. CRIMP-CO 2 : Accomplishments First high temporal resolution time-series (2005-now) study for a tropical coastal embayment. >24 months of CRIMP-CO 2 data and synoptic water column data in the bay Results: (2006) -1.26, (2007) -2.17 Mole C m -2 yr -1 flux is consistent with prior work stating that Kaneohe Bay is a source of CO 2 to the atmosphere on an annual timescale (-1.45 Mole C m -2 yr -1, Fagan and Mackenzie, 2007) Kaneohe Bay is a temporary sink of CO 2 during storms but remains a source to the atmosphere over annual scales ßLocal but globally relevant data on direction and flux of greenhouse gases and ocean acidification ßTraining of technical workforce in ocean technology and outreach… Season 1Season 2 SINK SOURCE *No sink behavior during storm period 3, although decreased in source strength *Temporary CO 2 sink during several storm periods
