Overview
The Onset HOBO MX1101 data logger measures and transmits temperature and relative humidity data wirelessly to mobile devices or Windows computers via Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) technology. Add the MX Gateway for remote access to data in Onset's cloud-based HOBOlink software.
Mechanics
The self-contained wireless data logger works with a mobile device or Windows computer and Onset's free HOBOconnect app so users can configure the logger and read out data over a 100-foot range, with no other dedicated equipment required. Using Onset's free app, users can also view data in graphs, check the operational status of loggers, configure alarm notifications, and share data files.
| Temperature Sensor | |
| Range | -20° to 70°C (-4° to 158°F) |
| Accuracy | ±0.21°C from 0° to 50°C (±0.38°F from 32° to 122°F) |
| Resolution | 0.024°C at 25°C (0.04°F at 77°F) |
| Drift | <0.1°C (0.18°F) per year |
| RH Sensor* | |
| Range | 1% to 90%, non-condensing |
| Accuracy | ±2.0% from 20% RH to 80% RH typical to a maximum of ±4.5% including hysteresis at 25˚C (77˚F); below 20% RH and above 80% RH ±6% typical |
| Resolution | 0.01% |
| Drift | <1% per year typical |
| Response Time | |
| Temperature | 7:30 minutes in air moving 1 m/s (2.2 mph) |
| RH | 20 seconds 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 | -20° to 70°C (-4° to 158°F); 0 to 95% RH (non-condensing) |
| Logging Rate | 1 second to 18 hours |
| 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 |
| Restart Mode | Push button |
| Time Accuracy | ±1 minute per month at 25°C (77°F) |
| Battery Life | 1 year, typical with logging interval of 1 minute. Faster logging and/or statistics sampling intervals, entering burst logging mode, and remaining connected with the app will impact battery life. Excessive readouts, audible alarms, and paging all impact battery life. Visual alarms and other events can have a marginal impact on battery life. |
| Battery Type | Two AAA 1.5 V alkaline batteries, user replaceable |
| Memory | 128 KB (84,650 measurements, maximum) |
| Full Memory Download Time | Approximately 60 seconds; may take longer the further the device is from the logger |
| LCD | LCD is visible from 0° to 50°C (32° to 122°F); the LCD may react slowly or go blank in temperatures outside this range |
| Size | 3.66 x 8.48 x 2.29 cm (1.44 x 3.34 x 0.9 in.) |
| Weight | 56 g (1.98 oz) |
| Environmental Rating | IP50 |

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. [caption id="attachment_38996" align="alignnone" width="940"] HRWC volunteers measure stream velocity across a subsection of Woods Creek, a tributary of the Huron River near Belleville, Michigan. Stream velocity measurements can be combined with water level measurements to calculate stream flow and chemical parameter loads.

Monitoring Lake Erie’s Eastern Basin: Building Long-Term Data and Real-Time Public Solutions
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. [caption id="attachment_38976" align="aligncenter" width="940"] The Dunkirk Buoy viewed from the research vessel after being deployed in early spring.

SonTek CastAway-CTD Meter Review
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. [caption id="attachment_38732" align="alignnone" width="940"] Environmental scientist, Katelyn Kubasky, holding the SonTek CastAway in front of the pond at the Fondriest Center for Environmental Studies.
