Summary

The use of field-deployable fluorescence sensors to better understand dissolved organic matter concentrations and composition has grown immensely in recent years. Applications of these sensors to critical monitoring efforts have also grown to encompass post-fire monitoring, wastewater tracking, and use as a proxy for various contaminants. Despite the growth, it is well known that these sensors are subject to various interferences and require corrections for temperature, turbidity, and concentration effects. Although temperature corrections are widely applicable across sensors, the turbidity and concentration corrections can be site-specific and/or sensor-specific. The corrections can even be subject to changes in manufacturing within [...]

Purpose

Here we present data for fDOM corrections related to turbidity and concentration (inner filtering) on the most commonly used field-deployable, non-phytopigment fluorescence sensors within the USGS/NGWOS program.
