Abstract: We tested a new type of wind-transported particle collector (multidirectional traps, MDt) in southeast Spain to forecast particle movement in three different soil types. The MDt collectors are easy to manufacture from thermoplastic filaments with an industrial 3D printer.The collectors tested were very efficient. Our research was carried out on unplowed Calcisols and on orange and olive-cropped Fluvisols and Luvisols, respectively. The results from the logs of nine vaned masts, each with four MDt collectors at… Show more

“…In front of usually performed collectors (Modified Wilson and Cook, MWAC, or Big Spring number eight model, BSNE, from Fryrear), we used a collector of our own design that we called Multidirectional trap (MDt), which can differentiate the sediments collected by the direction they come from. Apart from its efficiency, MDt is economical and easy to manufacture with an industrial 3D printer [18][19][20]. As six masts with four MDt collectors at different heights were used, we were able to find the average loss or deposit of particles in the citrus orchard subject of this study.…”

“…Once the measurement system sensors had been properly calibrated and the microcontroller managing their signals had an internet connection, the next step was the development of the IoT platform. For this, the sensor readings are published to an Eclipse Mosquitto open source MQTT (Message Queing Telemetry Transport) broker (part of the Eclipse Foundation) that implements the MQTT protocol [20]. Use of an MQTT broker in the cloud makes it possible for several IoT devices to communicate through the MQTT protocol even if these devices belong to different networks and provides a lightweight method of sending messages using the publish/subscribe model.…”
