Evaluation of Low-Cost Sensors for Continuous Remote Water Quality Monitoring
Barlet N and Little D. Evaluation of Low-Cost Sensors for Continuous Remote Water Quality Monitoring. Research Permit and Reporting System
The goal of this study was to evaluate the performance of low-cost water quality sensors relative to industry standard equipment (multi-parameter data sondes). The sensors were evaluated on accuracy, precision, and susceptibility to fouling and calibration drift. Four low-cost water quality sensors were deployed alongside multi-parameter data sondes to monitor instream temperature, pH, specific conductance, and dissolved oxygen at 15-minute intervals over a 3-month period from late March to the
