Overview
The Solu-Blu total dissolved gas (TDG) probe can be used for long-term continuous in-situ monitoring to provide reliable dissolved gas pressure measurements. It provides accurate TDG pressure data and is designed for use in aquaculture, dam spillways, groundwater monitoring, and industrial applications. Solu-Blu TDG probe is not affected by increasing hydrostatic pressure. It can be used in a range of liquids ranging from fresh- and salt water to industrial fluids such as oil or hydraulic fluid.

Mechanics
The measurement of all gases dissolved in a liquid is facilitated by a semi-permeable membrane that allows gases to transfer from water into a gas head space where the measurement is made.

For air pressure compensation, the sensor uses a vented cable with a barometric pressure sensor inside the housing. This pressure is then used in calculating the % Saturation. When using the RS-232 signal, both the dissolved gas pressure and the barometric pressure are output in the data string.

Questions & Answers
Can the mA output on an analog Solu-Blu TDG probe be changed?
Yes, the sensor mA value can represent dissolved gas pressure, percent saturation, or atmospheric pressure. This is done by connecting the probe through a computer’s serial port and running a terminal program like Tera Term, CoolTerm and more. Once connected through the terminal, you will then be able to change the analog output to the desired format.

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.

Flow Photo Explorer: Studying Flows in the Penobscot River Basin

The flow dynamics of rivers and streams play an essential role in the chemical and physical functions of aquatic ecosystems. In Maine, varying flows in the Penobscot River Basin have impacted the health of the ecosystem, water resource use, and habitat suitability for native species—topics of particular concern to the Penobscot Indian Nation , who have been protecting and managing the waterway for millennia. Parts of the Penobscot basin have been monitored by the USGS stream gage network, which covers larger streams and rivers but excludes many of the small streams found on tribal lands.
