Land-Ocean Biogeochemical Observatory (LOBO)

Land-Ocean Biogeochemical Observatory (LOBO)
LOBO (Land-Ocean Biogeochemical Observatory) is a complete turn-key water quality monitoring system that addresses the need for routine, robust and accurate water quality measurements, particularly in sensitive and diverse ecological areas such as estuaries and inland waters. Developed by Sea-Bird Scientific (Satlantic) in collaboration with MBARI, the LOBO is designed as a real-time sensor network for aquatic systems.

LOBO comes complete with instrument frame, optional floating platform, power and wireless telemetry system, integrated sensor suite, automated processing software and web-based data visualization software.

LOBO is capable of measuring:
  • Physical: temperature, depth, salinity, current profile, and turbidity.

  • Chemical: fluorescent dissolved organic matter (FDOM), nitrate, and dissolved oxygen.

  • Biological: chlorophyll fluorescence with options for additional ancillary pigments.


System Features:
Easy to install and operate for both rapid and long term deployments.

LOBOviz software package for real-time and archived data viewing through a simple web based interface.

Highly robust, accurate and stable sensor packages with fully integrated and proven anti-biofouling systems.

Floating platform available in shallow (RiverLOBO) and deep water (BayLOBO) configurations.

Platforms also available for attaching to fixed structures (DockLOBO) or placing directly on the bottom (BenthicLOBO).
