Part 1: System-Wide Monitoring Program

  • Minimum 4 WQ and 1 MET station per

reserve

  • Same methods at all 27 Reserves
  • Water, Weather, Nutrients

Monitoring Stations at JCNERR

  • Four Water Quality (WQ) stations in Mullica

River/Great Bay

  • One Meteorological (MET) station at Nacote

Creek (Stockton Marine Field Station)

  • Nutrient (NUT) sampling occurs at the water

stations + USCG Marker 115 in Little Egg Harbor

SWMP Standard Operating Procedures

  • Instruments retrieved, downloaded, and

recalibrated monthly

– Downloaded data are uploaded to CDMO – Two WQ and one MET station are telemetered and transmit hourly

  • “Provisional Plus” datasets are submitted

quarterly (or more frequently*)

Nutrient Sampling (NUT) is a little different…

SWMP SOP’s (continued)

  • Authenticated datasets and metadata

reports are submitted annually

–Approximately 3 months after end-date

  • Data are available at nerrsdata.org

Types of Data Recorded

  • WQ: Temperature, Specific Conductivity,

Salinity, Dissolved Oxygen, Depth, pH, and Turbidity.

  • MET: Temperature, Humidity, Atmospheric

Pressure, Wind Speed, Wind Direction, Precipitation, sunlight intensity (PAR)

  • NUT: Orthophosphate, Nitrate, Nitrite,

Ammonium, Dissolved Inorganic Nitrogen, Chlorophyll

www.nerrsdata.org

  • 1. Data Export System
  • browse, plot, query, and download data station-by-

station

  • 2. Advanced Query System (AQS)
  • merge data from multiple stations within/among

reserves

  • 3. Real Time Data Application
  • bookmarkable webpages for individual stations
