Overview
The Stevens HydraGO can take soil measurements anywhere applications do not require a permanent soil monitoring system. Apple or Android devices communicate wirelessly with the HydraGO using Bluetooth.
Application Compatible
Simply insert the probe into the soil and tap the “Sample” button in the HydraMon app. The app will display soil moisture content, temperature, conductivity, and dielectric permittivity on-screen for immediate viewing. The date and time of each measurement are recorded along with the soil measurement data and the GPS location measured by the smartphone’s GPS receiver. All data can be saved and emailed as a CSV file for analysis in Excel. Notes and location names can be added to the data records.
All-Day Testing Ease
The HydraGO features a rugged, engineered resin housing with a rechargeable battery suitable for a full day’s heavy use. It comes with a detachable ergonomic pole so it can be inserted without bending over.

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.
