In-stream structure for mounting water quality sondes

Detailed Description

Continuous water-quality data are collected in streams like War Branch (pictured) using sondes, which are mounted to submerged in-stream structures like the one pictured here. These structures are constructed out of metal u-channel posts, and the data cables which connect to the sondes are protected by PVC pipes.
