Overview
The Aanderaa 4117 Pressure Sensor is a compact yet intelligent sensor designed to be used on the Aanderaa SeaGuard as well as in other measuring systems using RS-232 output. The sensor is based on a silicon piezo-resistive bridge sampled and temperature compensated by an advanced Digital Signal Processor. The sensor is housed in a rugged titanium cylinder.
Mechanics
Since all calibration and temperature compensation data are stored inside the sensor, the pressure is by default, presented directly in engineering units without any external calculation. Raw data can be selected as additional output. Two parameters are available; Pressure and Temperature. The Smart Sensors can be mounted directly on the top-end plate of the SeaGuard and are automatically detected and recognized.

Wildfire Prevention in the Sierra Nevada Region with the Yuba Watershed Institute
Though recent wildfires have sparked new conversations about wildfire management and response, groups like the Yuba Watershed Institute have been monitoring the forests and water resources of the Sierra Nevada region for decades, managing approximately 5,000 acres of land with the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and about 7,000 acres in private land partnerships. The goal of the Institute is to work with local communities and land agencies to improve watershed and forestry management through informed practices and public outreach. The goals of the Yuba Watershed Institute are three-fold: Improve the ability of fire suppression agencies like the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection ( CAL FIRE ) and the US Forest Service.

Wave Sensors Integration with NexSens Buoys: A Cutting-Edge Solution for Wave Measurment
Real-time wave data supports accurate weather prediction, safe and efficient maritime operations, and provides valuable safety and operating condition information for recreation and commercial fishing. Understanding wave dynamics also helps with the design of protective coastal structures like seawalls, breakwaters, and jetties. It also supports better prediction of their impact on sediment transport and coastal geomorphology. Wave data is a key factor in qualifying and designing offshore wind farms and harnessing kinetic energy for electrical generation. It helps with the understanding of ocean-atmosphere interactions and contributes to studies of sea-level rise and climate change impacts.
