NEON prototype HOBO data, 2015-2018

Two water level dataloggers (HOBO U20 by Onset) were utilized to continuously measure water level, stream temperature, barometric pressure, and air temperature at 15-minute intervals. The in-stream logger was secured to the bottom of the streambed to continuously measure water level and temperature to a 0.1% measurement accuracy. The air logger was attached to a tree or post on the bank adjacent to the in-stream logger in order to continuously measure barometric pressure and air temperature to 0.1% measurement accuracy. Barometric pressure data can be used to correct water level data. Water level can be converted to stage by entering the staff gauge height when the in-stream logger was deployed.
