Abstract
The laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) and laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) methods were applied for element and pigment concentration detection of marine water and phytoplankton samples. The spectra of plasmas generated by focusing the first harmonic λ = 1064 nm of a pulsed Nd:YAG laser on the liquid surfaces and phytoplankton samples in atmospheric pressure are described. Some of the chemical elements detecting by LIBS in the marine water (Na, Ca, Mg) and phytoplankton (Mg, Ca, Na, Fe, Si, Al) were defined. The radiation of second harmonic λ = 1064 nm of a pulsed Nd:YAG laser was used for phytoplankton pigments and dissolved organic matter detection by LIF. The results of joint application of LIBS and LIF measurements for phytoplankton communities state investigations inside Okhotsk Sea are presented.
