Designed for environmental, agricultural and forestry research, the DS-2 monitors wind speed, gusts and direction, outputting data to a Decagon Devices Em50 series logger or almost any other SDI-12 compatible logger.
The DS-2 is excellent for remote monitoring applications because it consumes little power, never needs recalibrating, and only requires minimal maintenance – just a wipe with a damp cloth every couple of months. And there are no moving parts or components that would be vulnerable in the event of high-speed gusts.
The DS-2 remains accurate - even at low wind speeds - with a specification of 0.30m/s or <3% of reading, whichever is greater, over a range of 0-30m/s.
Despite its high specification, the DS-2 compares favourably with other sonic anemometers currently on the market. It is also very economical to use thanks to a low power consumption allowing operation for six months or more on the five AA batteries in the Em50 series data loggers.

- The threat of large-scale fly-tipping (article by Rob Symons, Operations Director, CRJ Services) Pollution
In 2022/23 there were 42,000 large fly-tipping incidents in England alone. This cost hard-pressed local authorities £13.2 million (compared to £10.7 million the previous year) and created a threat to human health, wildlife habitats and the wider environment. Defined as being at least one tipper lorry load in size, large fly-tipping incidents also create a barrier to land development, improvement and restoration.
- Scotch whisky distiller halves carbon and will share secrets of its success 'open source' Business
Scotch whisky maker Chivas Brothers has made the expertise and learnings from its successful integration of enhanced heat recovery technologies 'open source'. The move was made after the application of the technology at its Glentauchers site showed significant benefit in carbon emissions reduction, providing insights that will benefit the industry at large if adopted at other suitable distillation sites.
