Monitoring oceans and lakes

The changes in biogeochemistry and growth of organisms in lakes and oceans can be tightly coupled to temperature and light. We are developing low cost sensor systems to monitor water conditions.

We are using the low cost and open-source Arduino microcontroller platform
