Saw Mill Brook

PIE LTER year 2012, 5 minute and 15 minute measurements of specific conductance, water temperature in a small headwater stream draining a highly suburban catchment (72% residential), Saw Mill Brook, Burlington, MA.

Abstract: 

Year 2012, continuous measurements, every 5 minutes for the first deployment and 15 minutes until the end of the year, were made of conductivity, water temperature in a small headwater stream, Saw Mill Brook, Burlington, MA, draining a highly suburban catchment (72% residential). in the Ipswich River watershed.

Methods: 

Conductivity and water temperature were measured using a HOBO datalogger inside a perforated PVC pipe along the south bank of the stream channel.

Specific conductance was calculated using a conductivity assistant in the HOBOware software.

NOTES AND COMMENTS:
The datalogger was deployed on Novermber 30, 2012 at a sampling interval of 5 minutes. The sampling interval was changed to 15 minutes on December 20, 2012.

FLAGS:
1 -- Datalogger not deployed
2 -- Datalogger malfunction

Maintenance:
