As with any groundwater or surface water monitoring project, you should determine the best instruments to use, and how to maintain those instruments, based on the monitoring environment specific to your application. When using Leveloggers, this means selecting the appropriate pressure range, ensuring the monitoring temperatures are within… Continue Reading »
The Water Resources Division of North Carolina’s Department of Environmental Quality (NCDEQ) is responsible for protecting, enhancing, and managing North Carolina’s surface water and groundwater resources. More than half of North Carolina’s population receives its drinking water from aquifers. With a large amount of the state’s groundwater also being used for irrigation, livestock, mining, and… Continue Reading »
From April 2013, through December 2013, a Levelogger Edge was used in an Antarctic Tidal Study to monitor sea level fluctuations in the Davis Sea, Antarctica. A unique monitoring setup was implemented for the successful installation of the Levelogger Edge in these extreme climatic conditions. A monitoring shaft was created in the shore… Continue Reading »
For years, Solinst has offered convenient PC software for programming the Levelogger Series of dataloggers. Now, Apple® mobile users have another option! The Solinst Levelogger App can be downloaded to your Apple smart device. The streamlined App provides all the same, major programming options available as the Leveloggers PC Software – but right on your… Continue Reading »
As you know, Leveloggers measure total or absolute pressure. When submerged, they record a combination of atmospheric pressure and water pressure above their sensor. Because the intent of using Leveloggers is to obtain fluctuations in water pressure only, their data must be compensated for atmospheric effects. In order to achieve this, atmospheric… Continue Reading »
The Environmental Protection of International River Basins is a EU (European Union) funded project with the overall aim of improving water quality in the trans-boundary river basins of the wider Black Sea region and Belarus. An objective of the project is to improve the availability and quality of water data in the region, including groundwater… Continue Reading »
A number of Leveloggers were deployed at this restoration site along the Hackensack River as a permit requirement to document tidal hydrology. Over the many months that the Leveloggers were deployed, heavy biofouling was observed on the Leveloggers. Continue Reading »
Because the goal of Leveloggers is to provide fluctuations in water pressure only, their data must be compensated for barometric effects. In order to achieve this, barometric pressure must be subtracted from the Levelogger readings to give actual water level data. Continue Reading »
Have you noticed a difference in raw water level (pressure) readings when comparing data recorded by the latest Levelogger Edge line versus previous models? Find out why. Continue Reading »
The program includes the use of the Solinst LTC Levelogger Junior to monitor changes in water level, temperature, and conductivity in rivers and streams. Conductivity readings provide a general indication of the water quality, while the water level and temperature readings may be used to provide background information when any spikes or significant changes in conductivity readings are noticed.
