Intertidal Sensor Array for Monitoring Ocean Change Stressors in Oyster Farms

This student team worked to develop an intertidal sensor array and remote data management system that could be deployed and used by shellfish growers, informing farmers of appropriate management strategies through measurement and analysis of water quality parameters such as pH and temperature. This sensor array integrates data management, battery power, and wireless communication in a robust package using off-the-shelf components, designed to function in harsh environments.
