Figure F2. A. Schematic of the permeability test system. B. Permeability test system. The top, bottom, and cell pumps from Geotac consist of 80 mL pistons that are moved upward or downward to infuse or extract water from the sample or cell. The interface chamber has a rubber diaphragm in the center to separate seawater used as a permeant (bottom chamber) from distilled water used in the pumps (top chamber). Deionized (DI) water was used in the cell pump and sample cell, which has a volume of 2300 mL.
