An Inexpensive and Reliable Monitoring Station Design for Use with Lightweight, Compact Data Loggers

Zalesny, R. S., Jr., Wiese, A. H., Bauer, E. O., Headlee, W. L., Jr., Hall, R. B., Mahama, A. A., and Zalesny, J. A. Tree Planters' Notes 52(l):32-35. 2007.

We designed, constructed, and field-tested an inexpensive and reliable monitoring station that can be used with lightweight, compact data loggers. We feel this design, improved three times over 6 yr, could benefit anyone in nursery or field settings interested in acquiring environ-mental data. We provide step-by-step instructions on the construction of the monitoring station, with the cost of materials at less than $20 per station (not including the data loggers).
