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 will detail the process for calibrating and launching STIC (Stream Temperature Intermittency & Relative Conductivity) sensors.
The "living" version of this SOP can be found on Google Docs: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1gTZ5MecE8Xjp6ymhH4rB92V_i1lH93Jv/edit
From this SOP, the following data types will be created: Time series of temperature and conductivity. [AIMS rTypes: STIC]
