Overview
The Solinst Levelogger 5 Junior provides an inexpensive alternative for measuring groundwater and surface water levels and temperature. The Levelogger 5 Junior combines a pressure sensor, temperature detector, a datalogger, and 5-year battery (based on a 1-minute sampling rate) in one compact 22mm x 160mm (7/8" x 6.3") stainless steel housing.
Durable
The Levelogger 5 Junior records absolute pressure using the same durable Hastelloy pressure sensor as the Levelogger 5. The Hastelloy sensor performs well in harsh environments and can withstand 2 times overpressure without permanent damage.
Data Storage
The Levelogger 5 Junior features a memory with a capacity of 75,000 sets of temperature and water level data points. Readings are linear at a user-defined interval between 0.5 seconds to 99 hours. Accuracy is 0.1% FS with lifetime factory calibration. Real Time View option allows immediate viewing of live water level and temperature readings, independent of scheduled programming intervals.

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.
