Leveloggers Added To Groundwater Monitoring Network In Kenya

The demand for clean, safe drinking water remains critical across rural areas of Kenya and much of East Africa, prompting many organizations to focus on increasing the number of water supply wells.For the past five years, William (Bill) Halbert, a professional hydrogeologist and owner of Insight Geologic has been working with… Continue Reading »

Simplify Your Pumping Test With A Water Level Datalogger

It is now common practice to use a pressure transducer, with a built-in datalogger, to monitor wells and collect readings during conventional pumping tests. Prior to their use, field technicians and drilling contractors may have spent hours or days on site, taking water level measurements by means of a manual water level meter or steel tape.

Barometric Compensation And The Importance Of Barometric Data

Barometric Compensation Leveloggers measure total pressure (water column equivalent + barometric pressure). In order to accurately determine the true changes in water level only, barometric pressure fluctuations must be removed from the data. The simplest method to accomplish this is by the use of a Barologger suspended above high water level in… Continue Reading »

Levelogger Data Aids Karst Springs Initiative In Tennessee

The Karst Springs Initiative Two “citizen scientists” in Tennessee have taken on the task of studying more closely, the vast network of karst springs in the state. Past research has done a good job in mapping and identifying these features, but there remains a knowledge gap when looking at which karst springs are… Continue Reading »

Solinst Telemetry Options For Water Resource Management

Whether you believe it’s a natural cycle or global warming induced, it’s hard to ignore the signs of climate change. The weather has been extreme the last few years, punctuated by “superstorms”, flooding, and widespread droughts. It’s not just these sudden extreme events that are concerning, but issues of long-term resource sustainability are… Continue Reading »

Manual Or Automatic Level, Temperature & Conductivity Monitoring

Conductivity is a parameter that is very useful as a general indication of contamination and salinity levels in water, thus it may be used as a pre-screening tool to help avoid costly laboratory analyses. Conductivity can also be used for measuring and monitoring the impact of pollutants such as road salts, agricultural and highway runoff,… Continue Reading »

Enhancing Water Basin Management In Turkey

The General Directorate of State Hydraulic Works (DSİ) in Turkey, have developed a long-term program to enhance the country’s water basin management through 2023. Their goals include, improving water quality, and gaining current and ongoing information on groundwater and surface water resources. Plans involve conducting hydrogeological investigations, geological surveys, creating models, and reporting water resource… Continue Reading »
