Abstract
A carbon dioxide meter with water-resistant breathable tube was developed in order to measure CO2 concentration in water. Laboratory experiments were conducted for verification of the effectiveness of this method. After measuring the time variations of CO2 concentration in water aerating by air pump or adding carbonic water, it was confirmed that this method was useful to evaluate the carbon cycle in coastal zone. Furthermore, the CO2 production from sediment by decomposition of organic matter was confirmed by measuring the time variations of CO2 and DO concentrations in the water above sediment at the same time.
