CH-Series Multi-Mode Acoustic/Radio Transmitters

Available as ID-only or ID plus sensors

As in other areas of fish and wildlife monitoring, Lotek is continuously expanding the boundaries of acoustic telemetry with a range of innovative options, including transmitters that combine multiple technologies for use in multiple habitats.

Multi-mode technology provides the means to track animals throughout a variety of applications or environments that may not be compatible with a single technology.

• For use in all environments including shallow and deep freshwater estuaries and marine/saltwater.
• Combines radio and acoustic transmission on a single device thereby eliminating the need to double tag.
• Compatible with both MAP acoustic and SRX radio systems.
• Compatible with fine scale acoustic positioning systems.
• Available as ID-only or ID plus sensors (temperature, pressure/depth, motion).
• Flexible duty cycle (acoustic/radio and multi-sensor) to optimize detection rates and data acquisition.
  

• Studies of migration activity of anadromous species from ocean through to spawning site.
• Studies of lake dwellers moving between shallow and deep freshwater.
• Microhabitat utilization and species interaction.
• Manual tracking, autonomous data-logging presence/absence and 2D/3D positioning.
• Monitoring of fish entrainment around hydro facilities during migration.
