ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING STATION
VALDOSTA STATE UNIVERSITY
my page
Together with VSU colleague Henri Grissino-Mayer and with funding support from the University System of Georgia, I have installed an Environmental Monitoring Station on One Mile Branch, a small stream that crosses VSU's main campus. This station is capable of monitoring water level (converted to discharge), water temperature, dissolved oxygen concentration, and electrical conductivity of the stream. The station may be programmed and downloaded remotelyusing a cellular telephone. I have used data collected from the station extensively in my  hydrology class (GEOG 3210), as well as building it into my introductory courses in geography and geology. We continue to adapt this data for use on  the World Wide Web.
