Abstract
An inexpensive modification for off-road vehicles provides a simple techniq ue for deploying dissolved oxygen meter probes without leaving the vehicle or opening the window. The equipment, specifically developed and tested for nighttime dissolved oxygen monitoring at commercial catfish farms, increas es efficiency in collecting large numbers of dissolved oxygen samples at aq uaculture facilities or fish hatcheries where dikes enable vehicular access .
