SeaView Systems SVS-603HR Wave Sensor
Features
- Plug-and-play interface with the full line of NexSens CB-Series data buoys
- Sophisticated onboard electronics provide near-real-time wave statistics
- On-board data logger capable of logging as much as twenty years of wave data
- Expedited repair and warranty service
- Lifetime technical support
- More
The SeaView Systems SVS-603HR represents a new generation in accuracy and completeness for wave sensing electronics whose features include:
- Low power consumption; fits the smallest power budget
- Small environmental footprint; sold packaged or as bare PCB
- Sensors account for 3-D motion, rotation and compass heading in all dimensions to cover nine degrees of freedom
- Onboard electronics provide near-real-time wave statistics
- Variable sample set size (256, 512, 1024, 2048 or 4096)
- On-board temperature compensation
- On-board data logger capable of logging as much as twenty years of wave data, depending on desired outputs
- Easy configuration to match exact sensing rate and output requirements
- Readily interfaced with transmitter using NMEA or other configurable data output
- Sampling rates from 1 to 8Hz (user configurable)
The SVS-603HR can be used to replace existing sensors, to upgrade existing buoys, or to add wave sensing capabilities to even the most compact buoys. Among the wave data that are available as outputs from the sensor are:
- Significant wave height in meters (Hs)
- Wave period in seconds
- Wave direction in degrees from north
- North, east and up displacement time series
- First-5 Fourier wave coefficients
- Maximum wave height (Hmax)
- Wave period at Hmax
- Wave energy
- Spectrum (raw or processed)
- Heading in degrees
- Custom outputs as required

Lufft WS800: Introducing A Station that Can Weather the Storm
The Lufft WS800 Multi-Parameter Weather Station measures a full suite of atmospheric parameters that provides all-encompassing data on the local environment, including a one-of-a-kind lightning detector. This compact, cost-effective sensor simultaneously measures air temperature, humidity, pressure, precipitation, solar radiation, lightning, and wind with an integrated electronic compass. An internal fan and heater reduce the effects of external influences for accurate measurements during long-term deployments. The sensor can be easily mounted on a 2-inch diameter pipe above any local obstructions with the included bracket mount, U-bolts, and 10-meter cable. Settings for the unit can be adjusted using the latest UMB-ConfigTool.

Small-Scale Monitoring for Large-Scale Impacts: Building Storm Resilience in the Newfound Lake Region
Monitoring Newfound Lake's tributaries allows the NLRA to better understand how these systems are changing and helps to quantify the impact that development is having on water quality in Newfound Lake. (Credit: NLRA) As many resource managers and conservation groups can attest, their work serves both the environment and the surrounding communities. Dynamic and healthy ecosystems can become center points for towns, cities, and entire regions—such is the case in the Newfound Lake Region, located in central New Hampshire. The Newfound Lake Region Association (NLRA) knows just how critical the preservation of the lake and surrounding watershed is for all members of the region.

Going, Going, Gone: Endangered Species Recovery and Conservation
Across the planet, biodiversity and natural habitats are declining dramatically. Countless species of flora and fauna around the world are being listed as either threatened, endangered, or extinct. According to a 2019 UN Study , around one million species are already at risk of extinction. Unless action is taken to reduce the causes of biodiversity loss, many of these species could disappear within the next few decades. Invasive species, habitat destruction, pollution, and other environmental stressors are all major causes of biodiversity decline. While high biodiversity is synonymous with places like the Amazon Rainforest and the Great Barrier Reef, it can also be found locally.
