It consists of three parts: data monitoring nodes, data base station and remote monitoring center. This system is suitable for the complex and large-scale water environment monitoring, such as for reservoirs, lakes, rivers, swamps, and shallow or deep groundwaters. This paper is devoted to the explanation and illustration for our new water environment monitoring system design. The system had successfully accomplished the online auto-monitoring of the water temperature and pH value environment of an artificial lake. The system's measurement capacity ranges from 0 to 80 \u00b0C for water temperature, with an accuracy of \u00b10.5 \u00b0C; from 0 to 14 on pH value, with an accuracy of \u00b10.05 pH units. Sensors applicable to different water quality scenarios should be installed at the nodes to meet the monitoring demands for a variety of water environments and to obtain different parameters. The monitoring system thus promises broad applicability prospects.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s90806411","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2009,8,19]],"date-time":"2009-08-19T12:30:28Z","timestamp":1250685028000},"page":"6411-6434","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":174,"title":["Design of a Water Environment Monitoring System Based on Wireless Sensor Networks"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"9","author":[{"given":"Peng","family":"Jiang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Information and Control, Hangzhou Dianzi University, 310018, Zhejiang Province, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hongbo","family":"Xia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Information and Control, Hangzhou Dianzi University, 310018, Zhejiang Province, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Zhiye","family":"He","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Information and Control, Hangzhou Dianzi University, 310018, Zhejiang Province, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Zheming","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Environmental Science Research & Design Institute of Zhejiang Province, 310007, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2009,8,19]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","first-page":"33","article-title":"An Overview of the Water Environment","volume":"27","author":"Jin","year":"2006","journal-title":"Water Resour"},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"393","DOI":"10.1016\/S1389-1286(01)00302-4","article-title":"Wireless Sensor Networks: A Survey","volume":"38","author":"Akyildiz","year":"2002","journal-title":"Comput.
