- Sediment sample mid-river during measurement
For the mid river sampling, you should use a plastic bottle and get a grab sample during the discharge measurement (i.e., just one sample per day). Just put the bottle as deep as you can (with your hands) and collect the water. Please write the time.
- survey slope water level
- Setup isco (After ice goes out):
- Track down those extra terminals!
I believe you guys will focus your activities near the crossing. I suggest to put the ISCO there too. You should try to fix the end of the tube (where the water enters the tube) to a rebar. The rebar could be near the bank (as long as it is located in moving waters). We don't want to capture any bed sediment. Any distance above 30 cm from the bottom (river bed) and 20 cm below the top (water surface) would work. Set the sampler to take 4 samples per day. You should collect samples at 3 AM, 9AM, 3 PM and 9 PM (four in a day).

Ken Note
I did it in terminal mode using a terminal program, hit enter unitl the CR1000> prompt shows, then SDI12 and give the control port, then you can send sdi12 commands down the line. I tried 0M! and 0D!, but couldn't figure out how to get any data from the sensors, but could tell if a sensor was there. Then 0A4! to change the address, and it was done.
