Overview
The Onset HOBOnet Wireless Soil Moisture Sensor integrates the field-proven ECH2O EC-5 Sensor and provides readings directly in volumetric water content.

Design
The sensor's high-frequency design minimizes sensitivity to salinity and textural effects and gives it a wide measurement range. HOBOnet Wireless Sensors communicate data directly to the HOBO RX3000, the HOBO MicroRX station or pass data through other wireless sensors back to the central station. They are preconfigured and ready to deploy, and data is accessed through HOBOlink, Onset's innovative cloud-based software platform.

Questions & Answers
Can the HOBOnet Soil Moisture EC-5 sensor operate in freezing temperatures?
Yes. While the HOBOnet wireless soil moisture sensor and cable can safely operate at below-freezing temperatures (to -40°C/F) and up to 75°C (167°F), the soil moisture data collected at these extreme temperatures is outside of the sensor's accurate measurement range.

Angler-Driven Citizen Science: Monitoring Black Bass Populations in Arkansas

In Arkansas, the rugged terrain of the Ozark and Ouachita Mountains dominates the north and west, eventually yielding to the vast, fertile flatlands of the Mississippi River Delta to the east. Hundreds of reservoirs and lakes punctuate the landscape, while swift streams snake through the valleys and hills, eventually giving way to the slow-moving rivers and bayous in the south. The waterways of the state are teeming with life. Black bass dominate most of these ecosystems and have drawn anglers for centuries. The most sought-after fish in one of the country's most prominent fishing states, Arkansas treasures its black bass populations.

New Buoy Boosts White Lake’s Water Quality Monitoring and Conservation

White Lake in Western Michigan is a vestige of North America’s glacial past, and gets its name from an interpretation of the Indian, “Wabish-Sippe,” meaning the river with white clay. The twin towns of Whitehall and Montague, which nestle on White Lake’s shore, have shared a close connection with the lake since their foundation–from the growth of the lumbering industry, to industrializsation, the expansion of tourism, and most recently, environmental protection. The White Lake Association (WLA) was founded in 1988 by residents concerned about proposed development at the lake’s northern end.
