METER Environment

At METER, we're all about simplifying processes to save you time. That's why we're combining both of our company LinkedIn pages into one. From now on, head over to the METER Group main page for webinars, podcasts, case studies, and helpful content you'll love. Find it here: https://lnkd.in/gzA5HM2R

Achieving water balance isn’t easy, but it is critical. Whether you’re concerned with fields or ecosystems, understanding the balance between water, nutrients, and pollutants can be the difference between success and failure. In this episode, agricultural engineer and professor Erin Brooks discusses crop cover, the hydrological impacts of management choices, and finding the balance between field work and modeling.

Dr. Doug Cobos, soil physicist, talks about why an inch of rain caused a flood in his city, and if it could have been predicted using soil moisture sensor, weather, and water level data.

There’s a lot to consider when collecting soil moisture measurements. Join Environment Support Manager, Chris Chambers, and Director of Science Outreach, Leo Rivera, as they discuss submitted questions all about getting the best soil moisture measurements. In this episode, they will discuss:  - How difficult is the calibration of dielectric sensors?  - How does soilless media affect the operation of dielectric sensors?  - How much can organic soil amendments influence soil moisture?  - Is it possible to determine the soil hydraulic properties from soil water content?  - Why volumetric water content instead of gravimetric water content?  - What is the best way to correct for the temperature sensitivity of sensors?

Most profile probes require you to choose between ease of installation and removal, sensor accuracy, measurement volume, and durability. We weren’t willing to create a soil moisture profile probe unless it could meet all of these requirements. TEROS 54 takes accurate soil moisture measurements and is easy to install without extensive excavation.

We had so much fun on our trip to the Universidade de São Paulo (USP/ESALQ) where we spent time teaching next generation scientists about making accurate environmental measurements. Thanks to all who participated for letting us visit and share our passion!

Meet the new thermal properties analyzer that gives accurate measurements under all conditions. The new TEMPOS is different. Recent scientific breakthroughs have enabled not only higher accuracy, but also allowed us to calibrate using significantly improved data sets—making this instrument more accurate than any other in its class. Wherever you measure, and whatever you’re measuring, you can rely on the TEMPOS thermal properties analyzer for accuracy, affordability, and simplicity that will make your thermal properties measurements easier.

Slope stability is unpredictable — or is it? The risk of landslides threatens roads, rails, homes, and lives. Being able to forecast where and when slopes will fail means giving communities the power to keep infrastructure and people safe. In this episode, we talk with civil engineer Dr. Ning Lu about his experience studying slope stability. Learn about the breakthrough slope stability predictive formula he helped develop.

If you’re only measuring water content, you may be blind to what your plants are really experiencing. Dr. Colin Campbell discusses how and why scientists combine both water content and water potential for more accurate insights in one of our most popular webinars of all time: Soil Moisture: Why Water Content Can’t Tell You Everything You Need to Know Watch it now: meter.ly/soilmoisture #soil #soilmoisture #waterpotential

Meet with our experts at EGU 2024 in Vienna, Austria April 14-19th. You'll learn about new METER products that simplify data collection without sacrificing accuracy. See what we’ll have on display here: https://lnkd.in/gnF53RfE
