Overview
The YSI ProOBOD optical BOD probe uses reliable luminescent technology with built-in self-stirring for highly accurate laboratory BOD measurements. The YSI ProOBOD luminescent BOD probe has built-in self-stirring to ensure a representative sample in the BOD bottle and to improve the response time. The optical sensor does not require a warm-up period, membrane changes, or electrode maintenance.
Optical Technology Stability
The greater stability of optical technology offers additional value by reducing drift and thus reducing costs associated with electrode maintenance and membrane changes. In addition, the technology is resistant to probe fouling from hydrogen sulfide and other gases. The smart, digital ODO probe stores calibration data, so probes can be interchanged between instruments without recalibration.

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.

Sustainable Fishing in Alaska: Protecting the Salmon Capital of the World through Research
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.

NexSens X3 Data Logger Review
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.
