PME Cyclops-7 Logger
The PME Cyclops-7 Logger logs data outputted from one Turner Designs Cyclops-7 sensor (sold separately). The PME Cyclops-7 may be connected to a standard USB cable for calibration and storing data.
Features
- Records sensor measurement, time, date, logger battery voltage and gain
- Sampling rates can be adjusted by the user, with a minimum time interval of 5 seconds
- Data are offloaded from the logger to a computer via a standard USB cable
- Free ground shipping
- Expedited repair and warranty service
- Lifetime technical support

Overview
The PME Cyclops-7 Logger is a self-contained data logging package for unattended monitoring. The Cyclops-7 Logger software allows the user to conduct sensor calibration as well as create visual plots of the data collected. The software is easily installed and operated.
Durable
The outer case of the Cyclops-7 Logger is constructed from Delrin, a hard and durable plastic material that does not easily crack or break. All internal circuitry and sensor components have been specifically designed to fit on the logger's spine. The batteries, SD card, on/off switch, circuit board, and other components are attached to a chem film aluminum spine.
Pairable Sensors
- Blue Green Algae
- CDOM/FDOM
- Chlorophyll
- Crude Oil
- Fluorescein Dye
- Optical Brighteners
- Refined Fuels
- Rhodamine WT Dye
- Tryptophan
- Turbidity
Yes, the default is 10 minutes although with the Cyc7 Control program, users can define sampling rates. The rate must be at least 1 minute and no more than 60 minutes. The program is stored in the logger from the factory.
The unit is rated for submersion and unattended monitoring although the battery compartment must remain completely sealed to prevent pressure discharges from water incursion in the battery compartment during deployment.
No, 2-point calibrations should be carried out using the Cyc7Control.jar program, which is stored in the logger.

Environmental Dredging and Remedial Construction
Though dredging is often painted in a negative light, dredging initiatives and projects are often conducted to improve environments, begin recovery periods for water beds contaminated with toxins, and reinvigorate ecological systems and habitats. Many of the technicians and engineers who plan and execute dredging projects are dedicated to balancing the economic benefits of dredging with protecting the environment. Sevenson Environmental Services Inc. provides sediment remediation as one of many key services offered to help restore natural environments. Steven Shaw spent more than a decade working as an engineer on various dredging projects before finding his way to Sevenson eight years ago.

Caring for the Chesapeake: Supporting the Iconic Bay Starts with Good Monitoring Data
The Chesapeake Bay is enormous: the Bay and its tidal tributaries have 11,684 miles of shoreline—more than the entire U.S. west coast. It is the largest of more than 100 estuaries in the United States and the third largest in the world. The Bay itself is about 200 miles long, stretching from Havre de Grace, Maryland, to Virginia Beach, Virginia. But the Chesapeake Bay isn’t just enormous--it’s enormously important. The Chesapeake Bay Program reports that its watershed covers about 64,000 square miles and is home to more than 18 million people, 10 million of which live along or near the Bay’s shores.

Treating Harmful Algal Blooms: A Natural Progression
Some of us happen upon the subject of our life’s work by accident, some of us are born into it, and some of us ease into it over time. For Tom Johengen, Research Scientist for Cooperative Institute for Great Lakes Research (CIGLR) and Director of Michigan Sea Grant , choosing to study Harmful Algal Blooms (HAB) was “a natural progression” from his days as a grad student investigating best management practices for controlling nonpoint source nutrient pollution. “I’ve been the research scientist with CIGLR since my postdoc in 1991, 31 years, and I’ve been the Director of Michigan Sea Grant for the past 3 years. When I began my postdoc with CIGLR we were just starting to study the impacts of the recently invaded zebra mussels.
