Questions & Answers
My DO% samples read low and then high to low, is this a bad reading?
The initial power up can make the first two DO% readings read low. These readings can be disregarded.
My sonde is reading a negative value for turbidity, did I calibrate incorrectly?
A sonde (even if cleaned properly) can contaminate to almost 1.0 NTU. Typically the average contaminant level ranges from 0.2 to 0.8 NTU. With this knowledge, you can enter this offset (0.5 NTU) using the sonde's One-Point Calibration feature. This calibration is only done after a two- or three- point calibration is completed. To do a One-Point Calibration after a two- or three- point calibration: Place the sonde in a container of zero standard or filtered DI water. Use of the supplied calibration/storage cup is recommended; however, any generic glass or plastic container can be used as long as the probe guard is installed. Enter the Turbidity offset as 0.5 NTU, operate the wiper and inspect for air bubbles. Wait at least 60 seconds after the last wiper to accept the calibration point.

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.
