Flow Rate Sensor

Vernier Software is proud to announce our new Flow Rate Sensor for computers (order code FLO-DIN, $128) or CBL™ (order code FLO-CBL, $129). This is the ideal device for measuring flow in your local stream or creek. The sensor consists of a collapsible rod with an impeller connected to its base. Three riser rods are included to allow easy placement of the sensor at different depths. Each sensor comes equipped with a 5-meter cable to allow use in a stream while maintaining a safe distance between the water and your computer or CBL.

Vernier Software and Wisconsin Fast Plants

If you attended the NSTA National Convention in Boston, MA, you may have noticed the plant light house in our booth that contained Wisconsin Fast Plants. This is the beginning of a collaboration between the Wisconsin Fast Plants program and Vernier Software. Dr. Paul Williams of the Wisconsin Fast Plants program feels that Vernier sensors and Fast Plants are a perfect combination for studying plant development. The Vernier CO2 Gas Sensor, Light Sensor, and Direct-Connect Temperature Probe are ideally suited for monitoring the Wisconsin Fast Plants in a self-contained environment. This is a great setup to demonstrate both photosynthesis and cellular respiration in action without destroying the plants being studied. The Wisconsin Fast Plants program can be reached at fastplants@calshp.cals.wisc.edu or at www.fastplants.org
