Platypus Collects Water Quality Data in Record Time with Robotic Boats and In-Situ Equipment

Overview Hired to monitor runoff from intensive greenhouse agriculture in the Netherlands, Platypus uses robotic boats and Aqua TROLL 600s to gather in a matter of days water quality data that otherwise would have taken weeks or months to collect. Challenge As population density increases, many countries wrestle with water quality management. The problem is particularly acute in the Netherlands, ...

When should stream water be sampled to be most informative for event-based, multi-criteria model calibration?

Isotope data from streamflow samples taken during rainfall or snowmelt events can be useful for model calibration, particularly to improve model consistency and to reduce parameter uncertainty. ...

New radar satellite technique sheds light on ocean current dynamics

Ocean surface currents have long been the focus of research due to the role they play in weather, climate and transportation of pollutants, yet essential aspects of these currents remain unknown. By employing a new technique – based on the same ...

Suspended Solids and Turbidity Sensor

Designed for accuracy in reasonably clean water, measuring a TSS range of 0 – 2.5 g/L (SiO2). The S-series are immersion sensors and they use direct attenuated light to measure both TSS and turbidity directly.
