CASE STUDY
Calibration: The miniDOT Ice-Bucket Test
If a miniDOT sensor comes back with a barnacle, chances are you’ll want to to clean it and test it for redeployment in the most comprehensive way. Here’s the data from twin PME miniDOT loggers that took a plunge in their own “ice-bucket challenge.”
Look out for Aquasend, PME’s subsidiary company, at Aquaculture America 2018, February 19-22, at the Paris Las Vegas hotel. Aquasend will be presenting the aquaDOT Alarm Buoy, for real-time oxygen and temperature monitoring, at Booth 411.
Scientists sampled a variety of streams in an agricultural region of France and found them to be surprisingly good sensors for long-term nutrient conditions.
REDUCING NITROGEN MAY NOT BE ENOUGH TO STOP BLOOMS
A 46-year experiment on an artificial lake in Canada reveals that – because of nitrogen fixing – removing phosphorus may be necessary to prevent harmful algal blooms.
@FionaDyer shared photos of new miniDOT loggers for deployment on an Institute of Applied Ecology/University of Canberra project in Australia’s Lake Tuggeranong.
Everyone loves a good continuous graph! @chandra_PLUTO shared a pic showing 30 days of DO and temp data collected with the PLUTO Buoy and miniDOT logger.
