Data collection infoThe temperature loggers were deployed at the same locations for several years. They were installed fastened to a cable that was wrapped around a boulder or tree adjacent to the river.
Data processingParameters with unacceptably high or low readings were removed. These readings were likely due to the logger being swept out of the water during freshet or major weather events. The Water Hub has performed a preliminary QA/QC protocol on this data but the individual user must still confirm the accuracy of the data and whether it will be appropriate for their purpose.

Calibration Notes Calibration is completed at each readout event. The logger is removed from metal housing tube and connected to HOBO Shuttel where the data is transfered. The shuttle is then offloaded onto the computer for analysis. The is completed roughly once each year. During read out the loggers are checked for any damage to the logger/housing and battery status. Loggers with low batteru life and/or damage are replaced.
Notes on Method Temperature Loggers are housed in a metal tube that is attached to a cable fastened to a tree or rock on shore. Cable lenghts range from 2 to 4 meters. The logger/housing is placed in a deep pool and pinched between rocks to secure them during freshet.
