Rugged data loggers monitor world’s largest chameleon’s habitat | Tinytag
The Association Caméléon Center Conservation (CCC)–a Swiss non-profit association–carries out two conservation projects, in-situ and ex-situ, that contribute to the conservation and scientific knowledge of chameleons. These projects also aim to raise awareness of the vulnerability of these animals and the need to take action for their conservation.

Rugged, outdoor Tinytag data loggers provide temperature data for weather observation
Two Tinytag Plus 2 (TGP-4020) data loggers and one Tinytag Ultra 2 (TGU-4020) are used in Trevor Goodall’s weather observation station. The data contributes to Trevor’s personal weather record, as well as being sent to other weather observers and the local community.

Submersible data loggers monitor freshwater streams | Tinytag | Case Study
Freelance freshwater biologist, John Davy-Bowker, uses Tinytag Aquatic 2 data loggers in a long-term river monitoring project in Dorset. With three loggers each in two chalk streams, River Frome and River Piddle, John is able to accurately collect water temperature data and compare it to external water level data and macroinvertebrate samples.

Tinytag data loggers aid viticulture investigation into the growth of Riesling grapes
The quality of grapes used in wine production is influenced by a number of environmental factors. The topography of the land on which vines are cultivated, soil quality, levels of solar radiation, rainfall, wind and temperature and humidity all contribute to the taste of the grape and the quality of the final product: the wine.

Tinytag data loggers monitor wastewater samples for South West Water | Tinytag Case Study
About 95% of the water that South West Water supplies to Devon, Cornwall and small areas of Dorset and Somerset comes back to them for treatment and disposal (South West Water: Code of Practice on our Wastewater Service). Once wastewater has been treated, it can be released back into the environment, providing it has been treated to safe and acceptable levels.

Tinytag data loggers assist sustainable building project in Tanzania
In the UK, architects and engineers optimise building design to ensure that buildings are kept warm during the cold months. When British architects Andy Simmonds and Adele Mills of Simmonds Mills Architects were asked to design new housing and educational facilities for the Tanzanian Children’s Eco Village (run by UK based NGO, Islamic Help), they, alongside energy consultant Alan Clarke, came across the new challenge of optimising buildings for cooling in the year-round warm climate of Tanzania.

Underwater data loggers record seawater temperatures in marine monitoring programme
Non-native species (also referred to as introduced species) are species which have been introduced to a new environment by human activity. Tinytag Aquatic 2 data loggers are used to monitor seawater temperatures to assess how temperatures affect non-native populations at Orkney, an archipelago off the coast of Scotland.

Monitoring temperatures of Antarctic soil
As our climate changes, rising temperatures are having untold effects on the Earth’s ecosystems. A team of researchers from the British Antarctic Survey (BAS) have used Tinytag data loggers to investigate how increasing temperatures in maritime Antarctica could impact the growth of a decomposer fungus that inhabits Antarctic soil.
-
Tinytag data loggers monitor reptile habitats in Costa Rica
Deforestation and habitat destruction present major threats to the Black-headed Bushmaster, but it is thanks to conservation work, using temperature and humidity data loggers, and dedicated ecological parks that the bushmaster continues to thrive both in its natural rainforest habitat and in captivity.
-
Tinytag data loggers used to help sea turtle conservation efforts
Two experiments were conducted by the Department of Biosciences at Swansea University to investigate the potential of using low-cost, low-technology techniques to mitigate the effects of increasing sand temperatures in the nesting locations of three turtle populations in St. Eustatius.
-
Tinytags monitor bat swarming sites in Kent
Seasonal temperature and relative humidity changes are being recorded as part of research into bat swarming behaviour.
-
Tinytags used in Peak District Moorland Conservation and Restoration Project
Tinytag count data loggers are connected to a tipping bucket rain gauge specially adapted to monitor overland surface run-off.
-
Scottish Environment Protection Agency chooses Tinytags
Tinytag count input data loggers are connected to rain gauges to record rainfall data as part of vital flood warning work.

Historic England uses Tinytags in building research
Tinytag Instrumentation data loggers were used with solarimeter sensors, while Plus 2 loggers were used to measure outdoor temperatures.
-
Tinytags support underwater scientific research projects
The underwater data loggers record seawater temperature data for a variety of scientific research studies in UK waters and further afield.

Tinytags monitor fish farm temperatures for antibiotic resistance research
Water temperature is monitored by the Tinytags in the fish farms for use in antibiotics resistance analysis.
-
Tinytags used in oyster development research
Submersible Tinytags are monitoring sea temperatures in the Adriatic and under laboratory conditions, as part of a study into how environmental parameters affect oyster growth.
-
Tinytags monitor cave temperatures as part of climate change research
A total of six Tinytag Plus 2 data loggers were used in a study whose final aim is to reconstruct past climate changes recorded by stalagmites from these caves.
