The Extech Single Phase and 3-Phase 1000A AC Power Clamp Meter Kit measures 1ϕ/3ϕ true power (kW), apparent power (kVA), and reactive power (kVAR), plus horsepower (HP), power factor, and phase angle with lead/lag indicator. The meter auto detects AC/DC voltage measurements with simultaneous frequency display. The capacitance function measures to 7000μF with 0.001μF resolution, and the high resistance tests are to 100MΩ. The type K function is °C/°F switchable and measures temperature to 1000ºF. The kit also includes a 1.6 inch clamp jaw opening and performs diode and continuity tests.
The kit includes two CAT IV-600V 72” (1.8m) leadextensions with right angle and straight end shrouded bananaplugs; two modular test probe handles with stainless steeltips; two plunger activated retractable jaw clips; two extralarge alligator clips.

Monitoring Lake Erie’s Eastern Basin: Building Long-Term Data and Real-Time Public Solutions
In the eastern basin of Lake Erie, off the coast of Dunkirk, New York, a data buoy collects valuable water quality, weather, and wave data that inform residents and regulatory groups of conditions on the water. 
 
Since 2011, Buffalo State University’s Great Lakes Center has maintained and operated the Dunkirk buoy with funding from the Great Lakes Observing System (GLOS) and field support from the NYSDEC Lake Erie Fisheries Research Unit.

Lightweight and easy to use, the SonTek CastAway offers a convenient 3-in-1 solution for measuring conductivity, temperature, and depth profiles. At a 5 Hz sampling rate, the CastAway is designed for up to 1 m/s free-fall through the water column. 
 
 With fast response and accurate conductivity, temperature, and depth measurements, the CastAway is ideal for thermocline and halocline profiling. The unit also reports salinity and speed of sound.

Wesley Turner, an Environmental Scientist Advisor with the GIS and Data Analysis Section of the Watershed Management Branch in the Kentucky Division of Water , spends his days researching current technology and developing various drone programs for the Division of Water. 
 
Having grown up during Love Canal and Valley of the Drums, Turner decided at a young age that he wanted to become a scientist and spend his life trying to right humanity’s wrongs and protect the environment. 
 
“I loved looking at the plants and animals on the farm where I lived. I wondered at the beauty and mystery of the soil and water in the surrounding fields. As I grew older, I learned of the problems our species caused on the planet […] I remember thinking things had to change,” recalls Turner.
