The Alliance for Coastal Technologies (ACT) has initiated this Performance Verification of
commercially available in situ dissolved oxygen (DO) sensors as a follow up to the first ACT
Technology Evaluation conducted on DO sensors in 2003/2004. Over the past 10 years, there
have been significant advancements in this class of instrumentation, while the need for accurate
and reliable spatially and temporally intensive measurements of DO remains a high priority in
fresh, coastal and ocean waters around the world. ACT selected in situ DO sensors for its next
technology evaluation based on 1) DO sensors being an NOS priority for habitat quality
monitoring and ecological forecasting; and 2) a consensus from stakeholders of the need for
performance information on the “next generation” DO sensors that have been developed over the
last decade since ACT’s previous evaluation. The DO sensor verification will follow ACT’s
standard evaluation process.
These test protocols delineate how AC.....
