Overview
By combining the WS 131 Flow Meter and the Well Sounder 2010 PRO, the WS 2100 Flow Meter Kit includes all of the instrumentation needed to perform a complete well draw down test. The WS 131 comes with a variety of housing sizes each made to attach on a PVC pipe. Simply plug the WS 131 into the Well Sounder 2010 PRO and it is ready to go. Custom cables eliminate the hassles of multiconductor flow meters and supplying external power by easily connecting the WS 131 flow meter to the Well Sounder 2010 PRO. The Well Sounder's proprietary self-calibration routine makes the process quick and accurate.
Data Logging
With its built-in data logger, the Well Sounder records static water level and the pumped volume at a user-selectable interval between 1 second and 60 minutes for the duration of the test. Once the test in complete, the Well Sounder connects to a computer via USB. The data file can be imported into Excel and graphed or printed and attached to a report. The equipment is easily stored and transported in a hard-sided carrying case.

Lake Erie Volunteer Science Network: Building Trust in Citizen Science Programs
Citizen science programs have popped up across the United States, focusing on connecting local communities with nearby water resources and building a trustworthy data pool over the sampling period. While commonly utilized as a means of ensuring that large watersheds or lake regions are adequately sampled, the credibility and success of such programs have been called into question.

Stream velocity measurements can be combined with water level measurements to calculate stream flow and chemical parameter loads.

In the eastern basin of Lake Erie, off the coast of Dunkirk, New York, a data buoy collects valuable water quality, weather, and wave data that inform residents and regulatory groups of conditions on the water. 
 
Since 2011, Buffalo State University’s Great Lakes Center has maintained and operated the Dunkirk buoy with funding from the Great Lakes Observing System (GLOS) and field support from the NYSDEC Lake Erie Fisheries Research Unit.

Lightweight and easy to use, the SonTek CastAway offers a convenient 3-in-1 solution for measuring conductivity, temperature, and depth profiles. At a 5 Hz sampling rate, the CastAway is designed for up to 1 m/s free-fall through the water column. 
 
 With fast response and accurate conductivity, temperature, and depth measurements, the CastAway is ideal for thermocline and halocline profiling. The unit also reports salinity and speed of sound.
