Protecting EnviroDIY Monitoring Stations From Beaver Damage
One area of vulnerability for EnviroDIY Monitoring Stations is rodent damage and in particular beavers. Beaver tend to bite anything that gets in their way while in the water and they have very sharp teeth!
Building a Continuous Temperature Logger with the EnviroDIY Mayfly
This document outlines what you will need to build a Continuous Temperature Logger with the EnviroDIY Mayfly Data Logger. This is a great EnviroDIY starter project and utilizes the Mayfly Data Logger and a OneWire Temperature Sensor.
Monitoring Coastal Streams With the Mayfly Data Logger and Atlas Scientific Sensors
Adam Gold from the University of North Carolina Institute of Marine Sciences explains how the unique characteristics of coastal streams influenced his monitoring station design.
Building a Low-Cost Electrical Conductivity Sensor Using the Mayfly Platform
A low-cost electrical conductivity sensor using the Mayfly platform was developed in part to support efforts to study the effects of stormwater runoff into Great Marsh in Chester County, Pennsylvania.
Making Big Leaps in DIY Watershed Monitoring
Real-time monitoring and Web-based tools help to strengthen the measure-validate-disseminate links in the Internet of Water chain.
New Tutorial: Learn EnviroDIY Programming
I’m a scientist with a limited amount of coding background and an even more limited understanding of electrical engineering, and EnviroDIY Modular Sensors on GitHub has made Arduino framework environmental monitoring possible for me. This blog post will point you to a tutorial that is intended to get end-users like me doing Arduino framework environmental monitoring like a pro. The Arduino Revolut...[Read More]
Build Your Own EnviroDIY Monitoring Station
Stroud Water Research Center recently unveiled a comprehensive manual for building, programming, deploying, and maintaining an EnviroDIY Monitoring Station.
The Internet of Things Meets the Internet of Water
ConnectorSupplier.com learned the history of the Mayfly Data Logger and its potential to transform water quality monitoring from EnviroDIY co-founders Anthony Aufdenkampe and Shannon Hicks and EnviroDIY collaborator, Beth Fisher.
Computer Science Students Collect Real-Time Data With Mayfly Data Logger
"This is experiential learning at its best: getting kids in the stream, getting them interacting in their environment." Students at Milton Hershey School in Pennsylvania are deploying water-quality-monitoring sensor stations in a creek that runs through their campus.
EnviroDIY Sensors Track Road Salt Levels in Streams
During 2017, Stroud Water Research Center provided over 30 EnviroDIY sensor stations to watershed groups working in the Delaware River Basin to support monitoring, education, and outreach.

Mayfly version 0.3 bugs
A few weeks ago we found that some of the version 0.3 Mayfly boards were assembled by the manufacturer with an incorrect voltage regulator on the section of the board that generates the switched 5-volt boosted supply. This error does not affect any other functionality or features on the Mayfly. The only issue is that you will see 3.3 volts on the “Sw_5v” pin instead of 5 volts. We hav...[Read More]
