Burrishoole Catchment Automatic River Monitoring Stations (ARMS)

ARMS) stations monitor the following parameters Water temperature (degC), Conductivity (milli Siemens/cm), Nephelometer (millivolts), CDOM (millivolts), Water level (mm), Dissolved oxygen (% Saturation), Dissolved oxygen (mg/l), and pH (pH units). River monitoring has taken place in the Burrishoole catchment, on the Glenamong, Black and Rough rivers in Co.

Mayo. Data from the river stations has been collected since 2010. The stations support an array of limnological sensors and a telemetry system that relays the acquired data to the Marine Institute server in the Newport catchment facility office.
