| dc.description.abstract | This paper deals with the performances of nonpermanent environmental monitoring stations when recording at high-sampling interval (hour) over a long term (months, years) within estuarine waters. Information about data quality and system maintenance requirements are provided based on the experience gained with an autonomous station deployed during 2 years at the Guadiana Estuary (southern Portugal–Spain border). The station includes (1) a multi-parameter probe for water quality (temperature, conductivity, dissolved oxygen, turbidity, chlorophyll and pH) inserted in a tube through a surfacefloating buoy; and, (2) a bottom-mounted current meter. The main issues for the continuous acquisition of valid data were biofouling on the optical (chlorophyll, turbidity, dissolved oxygen), conductivity sensors of the probe and high sediment dynamics at the bed. The definition of a detailed maintenance programme is required for the lengthening of (valid) data time series. The typical variability of the parameters is described at seasonal and tidal time scales and episodic events are identified (coastal upwelling and high freshwater inputs). These examples illustrate how integrated data analysis is fundamental to define and understand the changes induced by specific events on several interrelated parameters, and, more generally, how these systems can contribute to a better understanding of the hydro-ecological processes operating in estuaries. | pt_PT |
