Compared to human-led collection efforts, the increased temporal coverage associated with automated water sampling technology can help capture short-term fluctuations in seawater chemistry. However, existing autosamplers, while effective in specific contexts, often face limitations that hinder comprehensive data collection (e.g., cost, accessibility, size/weight, modularity, etc.). Here we present the development process, laboratory testing, and field
