Have you ever used a thermometer to measure length? Duct-taped together two sensors because that would give you something no commercial product could do? This session gives a stage for all the scientists that build their own measurement equipment, or use existing equipment in ways the designers never thought off. This is a poster-only session that focuses on demonstration and sharing of ideas: we would like to invite scientists from all the hydrological subdivisions to submit abstracts on their novel measurement techniques, hoping to create an athmosphere where ideas and solutions can be shared across (sub)division boundaries.

This is a sister-session to the “Crafty hydrological experiments under financial constraints” session that is organized at the AGU fall meeting. In the AGU session the focus is more on the financial constraint, where this session focusses more on the unintened en innovative techniques, i.e. innovative, but expensive, solutions are very suited for this session.

During this session there will be ample oppertunity to demonstrate measurement equipment, so contributors are invited to bring their equipment.
