$20

Circuit Sensor Purchase

This donation allows us to purchase sensors for general use and the testing of environmental data collection instruments, such as the CU GeoData tethersonde.

$50

Hardware Store Trip

This donation allows us to buy the necessary hardware for field research, such as dig sites and instrument build equipment. Save us a trip to the hardware store!

$100

Data Stream Maintenance

This donation allows us continue receiving data from our instrumentation. Donations will be used to maintain sensor connectivity for public data access.

$200

Zynect Soil Moisture Sensor

This donation allows us to measure volumetric soil water content, the data for which will be incorporated into the larger CU GeoData sensor network and used by the Emergent Climate Risk Lab for seasonal drought forecasting. The sensor will be named in donor's honor.

$490

2 Essential Well Water Tests

This donation allows us to conduct EPA certified water testing for over 52 analytes, such as heavy metals, fertilizer contamination, and bacteria. This data will be used to monitor water health in vulnerable Tompkins county areas.

$1,100

Air Quality Sensor

This donation allows us to measure temperature, relative humidity, barometric pressure, carbon dioxide concentrations, particulate matter, and volatile organic compounds and will be used to make real-time air quality decisions during summer wildfires and track seasonal vegetation health. The sensor will be named in donor's honor, for which the data is publicly visible on Air Quality Egg Website: https://airqualityegg.com/portal/

$2,500

Basic Weather Station

This donation will allow us to deploy an additional weather station. Each weather station measures temperature, relative humidity, wind speed and relative direction, and precipitation, which is then used to supplement the existing Northeast Weather Association weather station network. Collected data is used for research and New York State integrated pest management. Station will be named in donor's honor, for which the data will be accessible on the NEWA website: https://newa.cornell.edu/
