Abstract
Notice of Retraction
After careful and considered review of the content of this paper by a duly constituted expert committee, this paper has been found to be in violation of IEEE´s Publication Principles.
We hereby retract the content of this paper. Reasonable effort should be made to remove all past references to this paper.
The presenting author of this paper has the option to appeal this decision by contacting TPII@ieee.org.
Optical Plankton Counter(OPC) can describe size and amount information and spatial distribution of the zooplankton samples which flow through it´s tunnel. But the non-zooplankton detritus mixed with the samples limits the application of OPC which cannot distinguish between them. Here we constructed a zooplankton net samples estimating system with OPC-1L, which can measure zooplankton samples in pump-drived cycling system well and truly. This system was modified many times to reduce influences(air bubbles, coincidences, impact damages, etc) with experiments. Now the system is almost bubble-free and work steadily, we can count a bottle of samples about 5000 individuals less than 20 minutes with accuracy higher than 80%.
