AQUATIC ECOSYSTEM MONITORING REMOTE VEHICLE

This paper reports the Underwater Vehicles for Surveillance and Monitoring Aquatic Ecosystem. The acceptable range of pH for aqua environment is between pH 6.0 to pH 8.0. Different problems associated with aquatic ecosystem due to water pollution are increasing pH and temperature due to global warming and decrease of dissolved oxygen. This is endangering the various aquatic species. Besides this, water becomes unusable for drinking, farming and for general work. So a microcontroller based un-manned vehicle for monitoring the water purity parameters viz.; pH and temperature using wireless communication is presented here. It has a aqua monitoring unit which continuously monitors the purity of water and sends an alarm to the central monitoring unit in case the water turns abnormal acidic/alkaline and gives an information on speed of wind, floating debris, possibility on earth quake through earthquake signals sensed in water etc. This helps for ensuring the safety of aquaculture as well as human being.
