IoT sensors in sea water environment: Ahoy! Experiences from a short summer trial

IoT sensors for measuring various sea water parameters, are explored here, aiming towards an educational context, in order to lead to a deeper understanding of the use of aquatic environments as natural resources, and towards the adoption of environmentally friendly behaviors. Sea-water sensing via IoT has not been extensively explored, due to practical difficulties in deployment, and the same applies to devising appropriate scenaria for understanding aquatic parameters in STEM education.

Optimal deployment in crowd sensing for plant disease diagnosis in developing countries

In most of the developing countries, the economy is largely based on agriculture.
The poor availability of skilled personnel and of appropriate supporting infrastructure, make crop fields vulnerable to the outbreak of plant diseases, possibly due to spreading viruses and fungi, or to adverse environmental conditions, such as drought.
