18、9:1992(E) BSI 06-1999 1 1 Scope This part of ISO5667 provides guidance on the principles to be applied to the design of sampling programmes, sampling techniques and the handling and preservation of samples of sea water from tidal waters (for example, estuaries and tidal inlets, coastal regions and t
19、he open sea). It does not apply to the collection of samples for microbiological or biological examination. General guidance on sampling for microbiological purposes is given in ISO8199. The main objectives of this part of ISO5667 are specified in1.1 to1.4. 1.1 Quality characterization measurement M
20、easurement of variations in spatial distribution and temporal trends in water quality to establish the effects of climate, biological activity, water movements and the influences of man, and also to assist in determining the magnitude and consequences of future changes. 1.2 Quality control measureme
21、nt Measurement of water quality over a long period of time at one or more defined places to establish whether water quality, once characterized, remains suitable for defined uses such as bathing, protection of aquatic life, demineralization or cooling purposes, and to establish whether observed chan
22、ges are unacceptable. 1.3 Measurements for specific reasons Assessment of the cause, magnitude and effect of significant variations in water quality and investigation of the sources and subsequent fate of pollutants discharged into marine waters. Identification of pollution, for example invertebrate
23、, fish or bird mortality, or other conspicuous phenomena such as colour or turbidity development, or formation of floating layers of dirt or oil, which can be ascribed to discharges, spillages or even plankton blooms. However, it must be stressed that this objective is often very difficult to achiev
24、e. Mortalities may be caused by natural phenomena and cumulative pollutants may often remain largely unseen. 1.4 Examination of the effects of man-made structures Assessment of water quality variations caused by engineering developments such as barrages, jetties, bridges, breakwaters or ports, and r
25、esulting from the extensive use of marine waters for waste disposal. 2 Normative references The following standards contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this part of ISO5667.

29、 discrete sample taken randomly (with regard to time and/or location) from a body of waterISO6107-2 3.2 depth profile samples a series of water samples taken from various depths of a body of water at a specific locationISO5667-4 NOTE 1In order to obtain a characterization of the water quality throug
30、hout the water body it is necessary to take depth profile samples at various locations. 3.3 area profile samples a series of water samples taken from a particular depth of a body of water at various locations: in tidal waters, either length profiles (along the length of the channel) or cross profile
31、s (across the length of the channel), in coastal waters and the open sea along either a one-or two-dimensional plan-view gridISO5667-4 NOTE 2As in3.2, characterization may demand a three-dimensional approach to sampling.ISO5667-9:1992(E) 2 BSI 06-1999 3.4 composite samples two or more samples or sub
32、samples, mixed together in appropriate known proportions (either discretely or continuously), from which the average result of a desired characteristic may be obtained. The proportions are usually based on time or flow measurementsISO6107-2 4 Sampling equipment 4.1 Sample container General guidance
33、is given in ISO5667-2. It is essential that special regard be given to the need to prevent contamination or losses through absorption of the low levels of many substances prevalent in sea water, and also to the problems which arise in relation to the high ionic strength of sea water compared to most
34、 other natural waters. Glass or other inert materials should be used if there is a risk of interaction of the sample with the container. NOTE 3Further details are described by Berman and Yeats(1985) 1 . When sampling at sea, fragile containers should be avoided. 4.2 Types of sampling equipment 4.2.1
35、 Introduction Subsurface samples can be satisfactorily collected by simple (manual) submersion of the sample container. The top can then be opened, and the container allowed to fill before recapping. It is essential for the bottle to be washed out several times with the water to be sampled before th
36、e definitive sample is collected. Plastics gloves should be worn by the operator to avoid contamination of the sample which should be taken upstream or up-tide of the sampling platform and in open water. This can be achieved by taking the sample from a point ahead of the bows of a boat as it moves s
37、lowly into the wind or current. This simple method minimizes any possible contamination and prevents possible absorptive losses on the internal surfaces of a sampling device. The various mechanical aids developed to collect samples from different depths are described in4.2.2 to4.2.4. NOTE 4Further d
38、etails are included in “Methods of Seawater Analysis”(1983) 2 . 4.2.2 Open samplers and surface samplers Open samplers are open-mouthed vessels which are used for sampling at, or immediately beneath, the water surface. Open samplers cannot usually be recommended for subsurface sampling because of co
39、ntamination by the surface layer, which may contain concentrations of some compounds which are sufficiently elevated to influence the overall concentration in the bulk sample. Samples from the surface microlayer should be taken with samplers specially designed for this purpose, but it is difficult t
40、o obtain representative samples, particularly under field conditions. NOTE 5The surface microlayer can only really be sampled in a qualitative manner. However, the chemistry of the microlayer and sampling methods have been extensively reviewed by Liss(1975) 3 . 4.2.3 Closed-pipe devices Closed-pipe
41、samplers are hollow tubes fitted with valves or stoppers which are recommended for obtaining samples from defined depths (either spot samples or a series of samples) or for obtaining depth-integrated composite samples. Most closed-pipe samplers are made of polyvinylchloride (PVC) or similar material
42、 and are, therefore, a ready source of contamination. To avoid this, samplers should be internally coated with polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), well-aged and have silicon rubber or PTFE “0” jointing rings. Internal springs made from rubber and external metal springs should be avoided where there is a
43、 risk of contamination with the determinands of interest. Two types of design exist: air displacement; open ended. Air-displacement samplers are lowered on a rope, with both orifices closed by stoppers which are attached either to a second line to the surface, or to the main lowering line by non-ela
44、stic cords which bypass a spring link in that line. Water pressure and drag limit the depth in which these samplers will operate successfully. Because of this they are most suitable for sampling in estuarine waters, but may be successfully utilized in the surface layers of more open waters.ISO5667-9
45、:1992(E) BSI 06-1999 3 Open-ended samplers are free-flushing as they are lowered through the water column on a hydrographic cable. It is imperative that a non-metallic rope/hydrographic cable be used if sampling for trace metals or hydrocarbons. The tubes are closed by tightly fitting end caps or sh
46、utters triggered electromagnetically, or by messenger weights or water pressure. When in position, the sampler should be allowed5min to “acclimatize” to its surroundings before operating. If messenger weights are to be used, they should be plastics coated. Some designs are lowered with shutters clos
47、ed, preventing contamination with the surface microlayer and water from different layers. When operating in strong currents or at great depths, the hydrographic cable is unlikely to be vertical. The location of sampling devices in the water column may be established using pressure transducers or ech
48、o sounders. In simpler situations, it is sufficient to record the length of wire drawn out and the angle of the wire and to correct to actual depth by using simple geometry. Samples from close to the seabed should be taken with samplers specially designed for this purpose. 4.2.4 Pumping devices Peri
49、staltic pumps or centrifugal pumps with impellers which are unlikely to introduce contamination can be used. Sampling tubes are lowered in the water body with the aid of a non-metallic hydrographic cable. The open end of the tube should be kept well away from the cable and the pump and the tube well flushed before the sample is taken. This type of device may be used for taking spot samples or a series of samples from defined depths, or for obtaining depth-integrated or area-integrated composite samples. Pumping device
