Spectrum WatchDog A110 Temperature Logger
Features
- LCD display confirms logger operation and displays current sensor readings
- Select measurement intervals from 1 to 120 minutes
- Log 4,000 to 8,000 intervals in fail-safe EEPROM data memory
- Expedited repair and warranty service
- Lifetime technical support

The WatchDog A-Series loggers offer an affordable way to track environmental conditions for analysis. Removable soft caps keep ports clear of debris, and slide out hanger makes attachment simple. SpecWare 9 (Pro or Basic) and the A-Series PC Connection Cable are required. The Radiation Shield is also recommended.
An LCD display confirms logger operation and provides current sensor readings. A-Series Loggers have a logger capacity up to 8,000 measurements (4,000 per channel using both channels); Select measurement intervals from 1 to 120 minutes. A 30 minute interval will record for 111 days before the station’s memory is full. Data is stored in fail-safe, EEPROM memory.
State-of-the-art low power consumption electronics are supported by an 12-month battery power source (CR2 included). No solar panels to purchase and maintain.

Crystal Clear Problems: Impacts of Water Transparency in Aquatic Ecosystems
From crystal clear alpine lakes to muddy rivers and boggy swamps, water transparency is an easily observable water quality parameter to anyone who takes a few moments to peer into the (sometimes) murky depths. Water transparency varies dramatically based on the location of bodies of water among different watershed environments, but it can also change quickly due to a variety of internal and external factors. 
 
 At Miami University (OH), the Global Change Limnology Lab explores the many ways that water transparency impacts aquatic ecosystems. Operational for nearly 20 years, the lab trains undergraduate and graduate students and has conducted work from the midwest Great Lakes to Alaska, South America and New Zealand. 
 
 The Global Change Limnology Lab, headed by Dr.

The Onset HOBO RX3000 Remote Monitoring Station is an environmental monitoring system that continuously logs data from compatible sensors that measure soil moisture, water level, temperature and various weather parameters. With numerous options for remote monitoring systems, Onset provides a Build-a-system configurator to help with ordering a system fit for any project’s needs. The configurator easily guides the user through the process of selecting different types of communication, power, sensor and other site-specific requirement selections when building their ideal system. 
 
 The RX3000 ships with mounting plates and hardware, rubber cable channels, rubber plugs, grease, grounding wire and U-bolts.

Lake Malawi (also known as Lake Nyasa and Lake Niassa) doubles as a Rift Valley Lake and one of the seven African Great Lakes. Due to its unique biodiversity, it’s a great place to conduct limnological studies. Harvey Bootsma is a professor for the School of Freshwater Sciences at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee and has had an interest in limnology ever since he was a kid. Bootsma fondly recalls summer vacations to Georgian Bay, Ontario, “I probably spent as much time in the water as I did out of it.” He continues, "I remember telling myself, ‘I’m going to get a job where I can stay here all the time.’” While Harvey didn’t end up working on Georgian Bay, he was offered a job working on Lake Malawi. He continued working there while completing his Ph.D.
