New and improved, more compact and portable water quality instruments , built by Tony Whipple of the Leuttich Lab are being installed on the M.V. Neuse, allowing for easier transfer from ferries.

This would not be possible without help from our friends at NCDOT ferry division.  David Griffin and John Destefano were instrumental in getting things connected.

The M.V. Neuse, appropriately named, is currently crossing the Neuse River from Cherry Branch to Minnesott Beach.

Stay tuned for updates  on the FerryMon Page  as to when this system is up and running.  https://paerllab.web.unc.edu/projects/ferrymon/
