Monitoring water quality with a YSI 85 instrument in Monie Creek, part of the Chesapeake Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve. Buoys marking oyster biological indicators can be seen in the background.
Monitoring water quality
Conceptual Diagram illustrating the cycle in which environmental management can use to improve an understanding of the issue, plan policy, implement action, and monitor progress, and how each affect one another.
Adaptive management cycle
Conceptual diagram illustrating how sampling is to be conducted based on available resources, data needed, and analyses conducted.
Choosing sampling methods
Conceptual diagram, and a conceptual model illustrating the framework and linkages in an ecological monitoring program.
Conceptual framework of a monitoring program
Conceptual diagram illustrating how the ecological indicators in a program will affect resources, data management, etc.
Ecological indicators in environmental management
Conceptual diagram illustrating an example of using a diagram for selecting and implementing important indicators. The diagram on the right was developed after three years of monitoring using the guidelines from the left diagram.
Example of diagrams that help select indicators
Conceptual diagram illustrating the remote sensing process in water quality monitoring. This deals with how light interacts with the remote sensing process.
Light interactions in the remote sensing process
Conceptual diagram illustrating the different methods that can be used to monitor water quality from dockside observations, to satellite sensing.
Methods of water quality monitoring
Conceptual Diagram illustrating the approach and how it changes over the time period of a applied science project.
Three stages of environmental management
