PIE-LTER Weather Station
PIE-LTER maintains a weather station on the grounds of The Governor's Academy in South Byfield, MA. Real-time data from this station are available through this link.

Plum Island Sound Water Quality
PIE-LTER maintains three YSI instruments that continuously monitor water quality parameters in Plum Island Sound and the Parker River. Monitored parameters include temperature, conductivity, salinity, depth, dissolved oxygen (concentration and % saturation), turbidity, and in-situ fluorescence-based chlorophyll. Real-time data is currently available from the instrument located near the mouth of Plum Island Sound at the Ipswich Bay Yacht Club in Ipswich, MA
