A wide range of applications with a single flexible
system
The SRX_400 receiver's diverse operating software and wide range of
peripheral devices make it ideal for continuous, unmanned application
in a variety of situations. To date, some of these applications have
included:
- remote monitoring of the presence or absence of individual wolf
pack members (Canis lupus) at rendezvous sites
- measuring the energetic cost (EMG) of migration at potential velocity
barriers, and the micro scale movements, of migrating Sockeye Salmon
(Oncorhynchus nerka) through fast flowing rapids of a major
river
- continuous monitoring of the effects of structures at hydroelectric
stations on the downstream escapement of Atlantic Salmon (Salmo
salar) smolts
- continuous micro and macro scale monitoring of the effectiveness
of mitigative processes and designs on upstream migration of approximately
2,000 Steelhead (Oncorhyncus mykiss) and Chinook (O. tshawytscha)
(using CODE_LOG with DSP 500)
- monitoring the migration of 400 adult Chinook (O. tshawytscha)
and measuring escapement in a 600 km stretch of a major river system
- continuous activity monitoring of grizzly bears (Ursus Arctos)
on a remote mountain range
- assessment of predator (Ptychocheilus oregonensis) movements
and behavior relative to hydroelectric structures and operations
- continuous measuring of entrainment effects and energetic cost (EMG)
of hydroelectric station operation on Lake Sturgeon (Acipenser
fulviscens) and White Sucker (Catostomus commersoni)
- activity monitoring of bats within and around Hibernacula with respect
to changes in temperature
- remotely monitoring the acceptance by potential rabies vectors of
a variety of instrumental oral vaccine baits, using cellular telephone
links to interrogate the datalogging receivers.
These are but a
few examples of the many ways that the SRX_400 has been utilized for
fish and wildlife monitoring studies in the past. If you would like
