Overview
The YSI Professional Series lab dock is designed to hold a Pro Series instrument and BOD bottle, turning the instrument into a convenient benchtop BOD meter. The lab dock is ideal for the ProODO, Professional Plus or Pro20 instrument with a BOD probe. The dock conveniently holds the BOD bottle on either the left or right side in order to provide a stable calibration environment and to store the probe.
Mechanics
The lab dock also connects to the Pro Comm II communications saddle to connect via USB for downloads, instrument setup or real-time studies with Data Manager desktop software. In addition, the lab dock has a small cable management port that runs underneath it in order to help manage the cable for the power supply from the cables to the BOD probe.

Monitoring and Facilitating Habitat Restoration Efforts in the Great Lakes
While human infrastructure, urbanization, and industrialization have advanced human societies, the natural environment has suffered due to constructed impediments and deteriorating architecture. In order to combat this degradation, habitat restoration programs across the US work to remove impairments and improve damaged waterways.

In the far north, the Alaska Peninsula stretches away from the Last Frontier into the Pacific Ocean. A narrow strip of land dotted with freshwater lakes and intruded upon by ocean inlets–this unique region is intimately connected with the surrounding water. 
 
Nestled halfway down the peninsula's southern coast are the small villages of Chignik. The area has historically been home to the Aleut people and has been heavily reliant on fishing for centuries. 
 
Home to commercial and subsistence fishing today, Chignik continues to rely upon the salmon returns to the surrounding villages, which are supported by scientists working tirelessly to understand and steward these fish populations.

Extreme environments meet extreme design with the NexSens X3 Data Logger . The new logger offers the latest in real-time monitoring technology with wireless communication, a large plug-and-play sensor library and ultra-low power consumption, all in a waterproof marine-grade housing. 
 
 The X3 is built to handle harsh weather, floods, high winds and rough seas, and it stands alone; no additional protective housing needed. With an operating temperature that ranges from -40°C to 70°C, the logger can withstand arctic environments and extreme heat. 
 
 
 
 A conformal coating on the internal circuit board isolates it from moisture and humidity.
