Bulk sub-samples (6.5 ml) of surface sediment (0-2 cm) were incubated in BOD bottles for ~24 hrs in the dark at sea surface temperatures. Dissolved oxygen concentrations (and saturation values) were measured at the start and finish of each incubation. Results were expressed on a per g dwt basis utilising a separate sample to measure %water. Analyses were corrected for blanks (filtered seawater). The accuracies of the O2 measurements were +/- 1 mg/L. The accuracy of the scale used to measure wet/dry weights was better than 1%.", "summary": "", "title": "Oxygen_Demand", "tags": [], "type": "", "typeKeywords": [], "thumbnail": "", "url": "", "minScale": 0, "maxScale": 0, "spatialReference": "", "accessInformation": "© Commonwealth of Australia (Geoscience Australia) 2016.
