Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of wetland ecosystems, in particular to a plankton monitoring system. Background Art

[0002] Wetlands not only provide a large amount of food, raw materials and water resources for humans, but also play an irreplaceable role in maintaining ecological balance, maintaining biodiversity and rare species, conserving water resources, storing flood water and preventing drought, degrading pollution and regulating climate, replenishing groundwater, and controlling soil erosion. They have huge ecological functions. Wetland protection is an important part of the construction of ecological civilization infrastructure. Through the protection and restoration of wetland ecosystems, a wetland ecosystem with complete functions and beautiful landscapes can be built.

[0003] Through comprehensive, thorough and timely perception, monitoring and evaluation of the physical elements, natural resources and infrastructure in the wetland ecological area, scientific data support is provided for wetland protection, management and rational development and utilization decision-making, and the foundation is laid for wetland ecological popularization and scientific research. Zooplankton is an important component of the wetland ecosystem and an important indicator for measuring the natural attributes, water environment quality and biodiversity of wetlands. At present, such a monitoring system has not been established in wetlands. Most of them choose to conduct on-site surveys and understand the population changes and activity status of zooplankton based on human sampling and observation. The results of this non-continuous sampling detection method are often unable to fully reflect the actual situation of the zooplankton population, which is also a great waste of manpower and material resources. At present, there are few monitoring cases of some zooplankton populations in China. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to solve the problem of inconvenience in manual sampling detection, the utility model proposes a plankton monitoring system. The monitoring system data transmission adopts wired network transmission. Users can observe data at any time on mobile phones, PCs and other display terminals, and can set thresholds according to the number and type of zooplankton. Once the threshold is exceeded, the user will receive a warning prompt.

[0005] The utility model specifically adopts the following technical solutions:

[0006] The plankton monitoring system includes a waterproof infrared high-definition camera, an ONU module and a host; the waterproof infrared high-definition camera is installed in a target water body to collect data on the number and type of zooplankton; the waterproof infrared high-definition camera is connected to the ONU module via an optical fiber; the ONU module is connected to the waterproof infrared high-definition camera via an optical fiber, and transmits the data collected by the waterproof infrared high-definition camera to the host via the optical fiber;

[0007] The host is connected to the host computer through a serial port level converter to send the population characteristic information of the plankton to the host computer.

[0008] Furthermore, the host computer is a mobile phone or a computer.

[0009] Furthermore, the waterproof infrared high-definition camera is installed in the target river bank, 0.3 meters below the water surface.

[0010] The utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0011] The waterproof infrared high-definition camera in the utility model is installed in the target water body, which can efficiently collect the number and type data of zooplankton. Its high definition and infrared function enable it to accurately capture the information of plankton under different lighting conditions, providing a reliable data basis for subsequent data analysis. The ONU module connected by optical fiber transmits the collected data to the host, realizing the function of remote data transmission, which can effectively avoid signal interference and quality loss during data transmission, and ensure the reliability and integrity of the data.

[0012] The host is responsible for receiving, integrating and processing data from the waterproof infrared high-definition camera, connecting to the host computer through a serial port level converter, and sending the population characteristic information of plankton to the host computer. This design makes data processing more efficient and enables real-time monitoring and analysis of plankton populations. Users can monitor the population status of plankton through mobile phones or computers anytime and anywhere, and keep abreast of changes in the ecological environment of water bodies, providing a scientific basis for environmental protection and management.
