Training Workshop: Using In-Situ Water Quality Sensors November 7 - 9, 2017 || Gainesville, FL Registration Deadline: August 31st CUAHSI and the University of Florida are offering a 3-day training workshop on using in-situ water quality sensors. The emergence of reliable field deployable sensors capable of water quality measurements at temporal resolutions commensurate with hydroclimatic and ecological drivers enables a new class of environmental measurements and inferences. This course is intended for students, post-doctoral researchers and junior faculty; all researchers interested in exploring these emerging opportunities are welcome. The objective of this course is to provide guidance and support for deployment of a wide variety of off-the-shelf in-situ water quality sensors, and quality assurance and interpretation of the resulting data. While the course will explore a broad array of sensor-derived measurements and applications, our particular focus for this workshop will be on the collection and interpretation of Lagrangian measurements (i.e., following a parcel of water as it moves). Prerequisites: Participants must bring a laptop with the Microsoft Office Suite installed - minimally Excel. Participants must be aware of the field components of this workshop. There will be lectures and data collection in the field. [Students will collect water data from kayaks.] The course will be held at the University of Florida<http://www.ufl.edu/> in Gainesville, FL. Included in the registration fee are course tuition, facilities costs, catered lunches and light refreshments.
