American Municipal Power (AMP) Ohio has been working on retrofitting old locks and dams to generate environmentally friendly hydropower. To minimize the impact on the river and aquatic life, they are using mast-mounted data logging systems to monitor dissolved oxygen and temperature levels at multiple sites.

Miami University scientists worked with NexSens Technology to create a custom auto-profiling platform for Lake Lacawac. It supports topside weather and PAR sensors, but the main focus is on the suite of water quality sensors that use a creative winch system to lower and raise throught the water column to sample at different depths. The sensor package is lowered every six hours, but the sensors sample every hour. Data loggers on the platform gather data and transmit to the nearby biological field station for scientsist to analyze.

Scientists from Wayne State University are working with park managers to monitor the runoff from a large, mostly unused parking lot. To minimize the impact on nearby Lake St. Clair, a green space will be added to clean runoff before transferring it into the lake.
