Onset’s HOBO MX1102 CO2 logger makes it more convenient than ever to measure and record CO2 in buildings and other noncondensing environments. It measures CO2 from 0 – 5,000 parts per million (ppm) – and our free HOBOconnect app allows you to access data right from your mobile phone or tablet within a 100-foot range.
The MX1102 also features a USB port so it can be used with a computer running HOBOware Pro graphing and analysis software.
Remotely access your data in Onset’s cloudbased HOBOlink software with the new MX Gateway.

Compensated Pressure Range | -305 to 5,486 m (-1,000 to 18,000 ft) |
Sensing Method | Non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) absorption |
Response Time | |
Temperature | 12 minutes to 90% in airflow of 1 m/s (2.2 mph) |

CO2 | 1 minute to 90% in airflow of 1 m/s (2.2 mph) |
Logger | |
Radio Power | 1 mW (0 dBm) |
Transmission Range | Approximately 30.5 m (100 ft) line-of-sight |
Wireless Data Standard | Bluetooth Smart (Bluetooth Low Energy, Bluetooth 4.0) |
Logger Operating Range | 0° to 50°C (32° to 122°F); 0 to 95% RH (non-condensing) |

Logging Modes | Fixed interval (normal, statistics) or burst |
Memory Modes | Wrap when full or stop when full |
Start Modes | Immediate, push button, date & time, or next interval |
Stop Modes | When memory full, push button, date & time, or after a set logging period |
Time Accuracy | ± 1 minute per month at 25°C (77°F) |
Power Source | 4 AA 1.5 Volt batteries (user replaceable) or USB power source (5 V DC, 2 Watts) |
Battery Life | 6 months, typical with logging and sampling intervals of 5 minutes or slower; 6 months or less with logging and sampling intervals faster than 5 minutes while logging CO2. Entering burst logging mode will impact battery life. With app use, battery life can be reduced by remaining connected, excessive readouts, audible alarms, and paging. Visual/audible alarms and other events can have a marginal impact on battery life. |

Climate Change and Microplastics: Monitoring Lake Champlain
Most people go to Lake Champlain for its exceptional views and thrilling boating, but it’s also home to a wide variety of interesting aquatic research projects. From studying microplastics to thermal dynamics of the lake, Timothy Mihuc, director of the Lake Champlain Research Institute (LCRI) at the State University of New York at Plattsburgh (SUNY Plattsburgh), has spent his career studying aquatic ecosystems. 
 
 As an aquatic biologist, he’s the main investigator on Lake Champlain’s research studies while also managing their grants, employees, and their hands-on buoy work. 
 
 Over the years, LCRI has received a number of environmental grants that aid in its monitoring research.

On March 26th, according to The Baltimore Sun , a 984-foot, 112,000-ton Dali lost propulsion and collided with a support column of the Francis Scott Key Bridge, collapsing the structure. Soon after the event, search and rescue, salvage crews, and other emergency responders were mobilized after the collision. 
 
As salvage efforts progressed in early April, NOAA’s Center for Operational Oceanographic Products and Services (CO-OPS) responded to a request for real-time tidal currents data and deployed a current monitoring buoy—CURBY (Currents Real-time BuoY)—into the Patapsco River north of the Francis Scott Key Bridge.
Read MoreSoundscapes of the Solar Eclipse: Citizen Science Supporting National Research
On April 8, 2024, millions of people around the world had their eyes glued to the sky to witness a historic cosmic event. The total solar eclipse captured the headlines and the minds of many who became eager to gaze at the heavens as the sky went dark for a few minutes. However, not everyone used their sense of sight during the eclipse, some were listening to the sounds of the natural world around them as the light faded from above. 
 
 The Eclipse Soundscape Project is a NASA-funded citizen science project that focuses on studying how the annular solar eclipse on October 14, 2023, and the April 8, 2024 total solar eclipse impacted life on Earth. 
 
 The project revisits an initiative from the 1930s that showed animals and insects are affected by solar eclipses.
