Questions & Answers
Can the sampling rate be changed for the logger?
Yes, the default is 10 minutes although with the Cyc7 Control program, users can define sampling rates. The rate must be at least 1 minute and no more than 60 minutes. The program is stored in the logger from the factory.
Is the logger completely waterproof?
The unit is rated for submersion and unattended monitoring although the battery compartment must remain completely sealed to prevent pressure discharges from water incursion in the battery compartment during deployment.
Are the sensors calibrated prior to shipping?
No, 2-point calibrations should be carried out using the Cyc7Control.jar program, which is stored in the logger.
What is the expected lifespan of the PME Cyclop-7 Logger?
With proper care, maintenance and calibrations PME Loggers can operate well beyond 5 years.
Can the reading interval be set and can the battery last for two months if read at and hourly interval?
Yes, at 1 hour intervals, the battery would last well over 2 months. At a 10 min interval, the battery life is 6 months.
Does the PME Cyclops-7 logger have any special storage conditions?
As long as the batteries are removed from the logger, storing in a the cold would be ok. If temperatures get below -20C (-4F), it is possible the electronics and housing could be damaged.
What is the exact USB connection type needed for the PME Cyclops-7 Logger?
The PME Cyclops-7 Logger communication cable is USB-A to micro USB.

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.

Current Monitoring after the Francis Scott Key Bridge Collapse

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.

Soundscapes 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.
