  • Automatic water sampler: below the white PVC pipe is the tile outlet. This sampler will 'trigger' when a sensor in the tile gets wet, and begin taking samples throughout a rain event.
  • Tipping bucket rain gauge and air temp/humidity sensor. A lot of meteorological equipment needed for event-based sampling.
  • Overland catchment area - water samples are collected in the black flume as well as from tile outlet.
  • Maitland Conservation ONFARM Edge-of-Field monitoring site in the Garvey-Glenn sub-watershed.
