YSI ODO/CT Probe & Cable Assemblies
Features
- One–cable design for easy, multiparameter measurements in the field and at deep depths
- Rugged probe and cable designed for field work with 2-year warranty
- Automatically compensates DO mg/L measurements for salinity; no need to enter salinity compensation values
- Free ground shipping
- Expedited repair and warranty service
- Lifetime technical support
- More
Overview
The YSI ODO/CT probe is the first expansion of the ProDIGITAL system. The ODO/CT probe and cable assembly features integral (i.e. built-in) optical dissolved oxygen, conductivity, and temperature sensors and is available in lengths up to 100 meters. Instrument setup is quick and easy with the integral sensors, which eliminates the need to install sensors before use and digital technology allows the handheld to automatically recognize connected sensors.
Applications
- Estuary
- Wetland
- Coastal
- Aquaculture
- Or any application requiring accurate, real-time salinity-compensated DO measurements
Benefits
The YSI ODO/CT has all the advantages of optical dissolved oxygen technology with higher accuracy, less maintenance, no stirring required for accurate measurements, holds calibration longer than membrane-covered sensors and is not susceptible to interferences from other gases.

Have You Heard? AI Buoys Revolutionizing Marine Mammal Monitoring in Whangārei Harbor, New Zealand
In one history, Whangārei Harbor, nestled in the lush hills of New Zealand’s North Island, gets its name from the Māori, “waiting for the breastbone of the whale.” It seems fitting, then, that it’s now home to state-of-the-art acoustic monitoring buoys listening for marine mammals around the clock. 
 
In September 2024, a team from Auckland-based underwater acoustics firm Cetaware Ltd installed NexSens buoys in Northport, a major commercial port at the entrance to the Whangārei Harbor. 
 
The first buoys to be installed by Cetaware in a permanent setting running 24/7, they use real-time artificial intelligence (AI) models to passively sense Delphinidae–from common dolphins to orcas.

Human interaction has negatively impacted the hundreds of streams that run through Southern California. Man-made river and stream diversions, channeling, and damming have changed the physical and chemical characteristics of these waterways. In addition to physical impairments, climate change is increasingly impacting the ecosystems of streams. 
 
To evaluate and mitigate these negative impacts, local groups are monitoring the riparian habitats of these streams and are conducting water surveys that document rainbow trout populations and evaluate water quality .

Freshwater covers less than 1% of the Earth’s surface but has an outsized impact on global ecosystems, supporting more than 10% of all known species, reports the World Wildlife Fund . Freshwater environments such as rivers and wetlands provide significant scientific, economic, and cultural value. But pressure from climate change, biodiversity loss, and a lack of prioritization in environmental policies mean freshwater habitats are recognized as one of the most threatened in the world–something scientists have dubbed an “invisible tragedy. ”
