Data Logger Fundamentals for Environmental Monitoring Applications
ثبت نشده
چکیده
A data logger is an electronic instrument that records environmental parameters such as temperature, relative humidity, wind speed and direction, light intensity, water level and water quality over time. Typically, data loggers are compact, battery-powered devices that are equipped with microprocessor input channels and data storage. Most data loggers utilize turnkey software on a personal computer to initiate the logger and view the collected data.

The increasing transformation of biodiversity into a data-intensive science has seen numerous independent systems linked and aggregated into the current landscape of biodiversity informatics. This paper outlines how we can move forward with this programme, incorporating real time environmental monitoring into our methodology using low-power and low-cost computing platforms.
متن کاملInductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) for Environmental Monitoring and Fingerprinting
This Hot Topic issue of “The Open Chemical and Biomedical Methods Journal” is devoted to applications of Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) in environmental monitoring and fingerprinting. ICP-MS has become a common method for monitoring environmental quality and processes, and for fingerprinting of natural and anthropogenic pollution sources because of its multi-elemental cap...
متن کاملA Generic Data Logger for MPI Programs and Its Use in I/O Characterization
Monitoring distributed programs on high performance supercomputers is a challenging task, yet it is essential for the proper administration of the machines, and for users to understand what their program is doing on production runs. To this end, we created a flexible monitoring capability for a major class of scientific applications, programs using MPI, that efficiently gathers information from...
متن کاملMonitoring soil moisture and water table height with a low-cost data logger
Comprehensive temporal data sets are often needed in geosciences to understand and model environmental phenomena. Time series data sets in the geosciences have traditionally been captured by costly commercial sensors and data loggers ($100–1000s). Dedrick et al. (2000) presented a less costly ($10 s) and publicly available device known as the Hobart and William Smith Data Logger (HWSDL) (Halfma...
