Overview
AMS Manual Cable-Controlled Discrete Liquid Samplers are used to collect discrete or composite liquid samples in drums, tanks, ponds, lagoons, and other surface water bodies. They are also recommended for use in monitoring wells with inner diameters of 2" or larger. Made of stainless steel with fluoropolymer bodies, they are heavier than most bailers, allowing for an easy, straight deployment into liquids.
Operation
Samplers are lowered into the liquid to be sampled and opened at a given depth by cables or valves, depending on the product. Samplers come with 25' of cable, but you can purchase more cable if needed to sample at deeper depths. The sampler is retrieved, and samples are transferred to other containers for shipment to a laboratory for analysis.
Features
- Heavier than bailers for smoother, straighter deployment
- Can be used to sample to depths in excess of 25'
- Cable-control handle allows the upper valve of all models to be opened and closed for discrete sampling
- Easy take-apart design for decontamination and cleaning
- Fluoropolymer sampler container is clear for quick field examination
- Allows for sampling of drums, tanks, lagoons, open waters, and monitoring wells that are 2" inner diameter and larger

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.

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.

In the Spring 2025 edition of the Environmental Monitor, we highlight partnerships across the world and the importance of collaboration between government agencies, universities, environmental groups, local communities, and other stakeholders. From great white shark research in Cape Cod to monitoring fisheries in Lake Erie, this latest edition underscores partnerships that connect stakeholders in a watershed through environmental data. With an emphasis on data sharing, a combination of real-time and discrete sampling keeps the public and partners informed of environmental conditions. Our writers also sought out science professionals dedicated to working with peers within and outside of the environmental sector.
