Obtaining repeated water samples can be a very time intensive process, especially if monitoring remote sites. ECO’s range of Auto samplers can greatly reduce the resources required to undertake this monitoring by allowing you to programme the sampler to take samples based on time-intervals or external triggers such as first flows or water level. Auto…

Obtaining long term water levels can be very time intensive especially if monitoring remote sites. This is where water level loggers really shine.  You simply programme the logger with the standing water level in the monitoring bore and deploy.  Downloading the data on a periodic basis will give you detailed long-term hydrographs for further analysis.…

In order to minimise the impacts of the current worldwide supply chain issues, ECO Environmental has invested in significant stock of Heron products including water level meters,…

Passive water sampling takes a representative groundwater sample without any purging or pumping from the bore. The Hydrasleeve is an easy-to-use example of this methodology that can be deployed for months at a time. Collecting a sample with a HydraSleeve is usually a simple one-person operation. The standard HydraSleeve components are detailed in the picture…

Why it is essential to monitor groundwater? Monitoring ground water is essential to gain an understanding of aquifer water levels and quality. This provides insight around how the aquifer interacts with local surface water sources, ecosystems and bores and determines whether development works have potential to impact them.  Ground water monitoring should occur prior to…

Environmental Water Monitoring – What is water monitoring, and why is it important? Water monitoring is the regular observation and tracking of water quality. With governments, communities, and businesses required to meet water quality standards, both regulatory and as part of a social licence to operate, it is a crucial part of determining ecosystem and…
