Abstract
A dual function fluorometer-absorbance sensor features an absorbance-based sensor configured to receive one part of an optical signal transmitted through a body of water of interest along an optical beam transmission path, and determine absorbance-based sensor signaling containing information about an absorbance of the optical signal by one or more absorbance species of interest present in the body of water; and a fluorescence-based sensor configured to receive another part of the optical signal transmitted through the body of water of interest along a corresponding optical beam transmission path that is perpendicular to the optical beam transmission path, and determine fluorescence-based sensor signaling containing information about a fluorescence transmitted by one or more fluorophore species of interest present in the body of water.
