Methodology

Purpose: 

 

Methods: 

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

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

NOTES AND COMMENTS:
The datalogger failed on August 11 and a replacement logger was deployed on September 14.

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

Maintenance: 

Measurements completed for year
