Source Water Protection - Early Warning System
on
The Terralytix Edge Buoy and monitoring platform prove to be a valuable tool in early warning systems for source water protection.
Throughout the US streams, rivers, and lakes serve as the majority sources of drinking water, referred to as source water. Determining the quality of this precious resource is now at the forefront of federal, state and local agency agendas.
The Ohio river is home to populations of various species of mussels that even most locals know very little about. Being little known does not mean that they are of little importance to our overall ecosystem. Freshwater mussels are not only an important food source for muskrats, waterfowl and fish but are also very important indicators of water quality.

Terrayltix Smart Aquaculture Kit is equipped with multiple sensors to improve and simplify remote water quality monitoring. Experts list a large number of parameters that must be taken into account in order to favor aquaculture productivity. The pH and dissolved oxygen levels are some to consider. Additionally, other chemistry limits are also recommended to protect the health of fish, such as ammonium and nitrite, the main indicators of toxicity created by the feces of fish.
