Abstract

The following standard operating procedure (SOP) was created for the the Aquatic Intermittency effects on Microbiomes in Streams (AIMS), an NSF EPSCoR funded project (OIA 2019603) seeking to explore the impacts of stream drying on downstream water quality across Kansas, Oklahoma, Alabama, Idaho, and Mississippi. AIMS integrates datasets on hydrology, microbiomes, macroinvertebrates, and biogeochemistry in three regions (Mountain West, Great Plains, and Southeast Forests) to test the overarching hypothesis that physical drivers (e.g., climate, hydrology) interact with biological drivers (e.g., microbes, biogeochemistry) to control water quality in intermittent streams. An overview of the AIMS project can be found here: https://youtu.be/HDKIBNEnwdM

This protocol details the process for setting up, testing, deploying, downloading, relaunching, and retrieving STIC sensors to assess the presence and absence of surface water. These sensors will be used throughout the nine focal watersheds to get a spatially distributed view of stream drying patterns (AIMS Approach 1) and will inform locations for distributed seasonal sampling (AIMS Approach 2).

The "living" version of this SOP can be found on Google Docs: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1_GOR5HyaH7kxzvBhT6yi1ajTyhBhfVRI9UGYjQ043qI/edit?tab=t.0

Also included in this resource are field sheets, used when STICs were collected to record site, serial number, timing of collection, and other information important for STIC processing.

From this SOP, the following data types will be created: Time series of temperature and conductivity. [AIMS rTypes: STIC]
