YSI IDS ProOBOD Optical BOD Probe
Features
- User-replaceable, low-maintenance sensor cap with 1-year life
- Guarded sensor - the sensor guard provides protection of the sensor tip when taking the BOD probe in and out of BOD bottles
- Self-stirring to provide representative sample and increase response times
- Free ground shipping
- Expedited repair and warranty service
- Lifetime technical support
- More
Overview
The YSI ProOBOD Optical BOD Probe is designed for use with all models of the YSI MultiLab, including the 4010-1W, 4010-2W, and 4010-3W. Optical, luminescent technology eliminates the probe warm-up period and membrane changes. The self-stirring BOD probe has a super quiet lab stirrer that helps ensure a representative sample and improves DO response times.
IDS Intelligent Digital Sensors
The IDS sensors automatically store their unique serial number and calibration data. In addition, they also digitally process the measurement signal. The sensors can be moved from instrument to instrument and maintain their calibration data and transmit this information to the new instrument.
Benefits
- 2-year warranty
- Reliable and serviceable
- Probe body tapered to fit into a standard 300 mL BOD bottle
- Extremely quiet operation
- No warm-up time required
- Self-stirring to provide a representative sample and increase response times

Lancaster County Makes the Switch to Real-Time Water Quality Monitoring Systems
Continuous data collection in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, started about 5 years ago, and the county will be making a major upgrade over the next year—switching from relying solely on the internal storage of water quality sondes to telemetry units that enable real-time data viewing. [caption id="attachment_39295" align="alignnone" width="940"] The first telemetry unit was installed at LCCD along Little Conestoga Creek.

From Florida to the World: How a Smithsonian Research Station is Bridging Gaps in Marine Biology
In the early 2000s, along the coast of northern California, where the redwoods dominate the forests, and the Pacific Ocean shapes shorelines, a Humboldt Univerisity undergraduate student took the first steps into a lifelong love of marine biology. Dean Janiak accepted an invitation to help a graduate student with fieldwork in rocky coastal tide pools, and so began a journey that led him from California to Connecticut to Florida and eventually to the world, where he has facilitated research in communities across the globe. While finishing up his masters of Oceanography from the University of Connecticut, Janiak continued researching fouling communities–marine life that live on hard, often artificial surfaces such as docks–at the Smithsonian Environmental Research Center.

Watershed Stewardship in Minnesota: Protecting Valley Creek in the Land of 10,000 Lakes
The Saint Croix Watershed is home to dozens of lakes, rivers, and streams that host an abundance of aquatic life from its tributaries. Valley Creek, a tributary of the St. Croix River, is a designated trout stream and while it is a pristine waterway, ongoing monitoring and stewardship establish a baseline of conditions and protect the creek. Don Wendel and Dllona Clendenen, Minnesota Master Naturalists, Liberal Arts majors, and retired college teachers, are two members of the wetlands research team based out of the Science Museum of Minnesota’s St. Croix Watershed Research Station that monitors Valley Creek throughout the year.
