Summary
Abstract: Water quality monitoring is conducted at 26 National Estuarine Research Reserves (NERR) at four locations within or adjacent to the reserve. The following parameters are collected at least every 30 minutes: water temperature, specific conductivity, salinity, percent saturation, dissolved oxygen concentration, water depth, pH and turbidity. All water quality data loggers will be deployed from a known depth from the bottom at each site.

Purpose: Research objectives Four data loggers are deployed in Jobos Bay. Two are deployed in inner lagoons of the Mar Negro Component and the other two in the Bay of the Jobos Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve. The instruments are suspended from a pole at a distance of 0.3 meters from the bottom at each selected site. Data from stations 9, 10, 19 and 20 are being submitted to the Centralized Data ...
