ABSTRACT:
A plankton collector comprised of an open cylinder having a netting and motor with an attached propeller. The motorized propeller and netting are attached within the cylinder so that the propeller pulls water through the netting thereby concentrating the planktonic organisms. Flowmeters can easily be attached for quanitative measurement of the water flow. Two species of this invention are set forth. One species is designed to be tethered by its electrical cord in flowing water. The other species, has a portable power supply and is designed to be used by a submerged diver.
