Project Description
Pollution of freshwaters from industry, agriculture and urban settings is a major pressure on human and ecological health. Effective and robust monitoring of water quality is vital to safeguard supplies but traditional monitoring has relied on expensive physical sensors operating at low frequency (monthly/annually) and low spatial resolution (<1 sample per 40 km2 even in some OECD nations) that require frequent skilled servicing and maintenance - often beyond the affordability of environmental monitoring agencies; in particular those countries with the greatest challenges concerning water quality. A fuller understanding of water quality and pollution dynamics are often lacking, hindering cost-effective and targeted environmental management.
