How to Collect High-Quality Water Monitoring Data in the Field



Original Broadcast: August 12, 2010 —1:00-2:00 PM EDT

Tips for Selecting Monitoring Sites, Deploying Instruments, and Developing SOPs

It takes effort to collect good field data that is of known and documented quality. While it can be challenging, continuous water monitoring provides critical data for improving understanding of the natural world, protecting water resources, providing warnings, and informing water policies.

Presentation of how to improve monitoring techniques to collect the best quality data possible.

Topics covered:
• Understanding sites and installations
• Instrument functionality and quality assurance
• Data management and standard operating procedures

You might be interested in this webinar if:
• You are transitioning from a sampling program to a continuous monitoring program
• You are new to continuous monitoring
• You conduct continuous monitoring and would like to learn about procedures recently developed by the Aquatic Sensor Workgroup.

Slides are now available.
