Matt Moser is a Hydrologist for the U.S. Geological Survey Nebraska Water Science Center in Lincoln, Nebraska.
I currently work as a Physical Scientist with water quality in the State of Nebraska and have been working with water in Nebraska for the past 18 years. I can assist you in collecting samples or monitoring water. I lead our continuous water quality monitoring network where we operate multi-parameter sondes in surface water. I design water quality monitoring stations to maximize the quality of data collected, troubleshoot any issue that arise, and approve the data that is collected. I have been operating water quality sensors for 15 years and have built up an extensive knowledge of how the equipment works and troubleshooting techniques to ensure accurate data. Parameters monitored continuously in the State include water temperature, specific conductance, pH, dissolved oxygen, turbidity, nitrate, chlorophyll, total algae, and others.
I also lead sampling crews here in Nebraska that sample for a variety of analytes. These include nutrients, major ions, bacteria, eDNA, pesticides, noenicitinoids, sediment, and various other analytes. While I primarily sample surface water, I have also sampled groundwater in the past. The surface water sites can be sampled via wading, off a bridge, or by boat.

Missouri River Water-Quality Monitoring in Relation to Combined Sewer Overflow Systems near Omaha, Nebraska
In 2012, the USGS Nebraska Water Science Center, in cooperation with the City of Omaha, began monitoring the Missouri River near Omaha to document water-quality changes in the river as the City improved their combined sewer overflow (CSO) system. The monitoring program includes both discrete and continuous data collection at four sampling sites on the Missouri River. Monitoring at each site...Continuous Water-Quality Monitoring Network
The USGS Nebraska Water Science Center maintains a network of continuous water-quality monitors across Nebraska which provide near-real-time water-quality data. Continuous water-quality monitors are typically installed at or near existing USGS stream gages or wells. Parameters that are monitored at continuous water-quality sites include water temperature, specific conductance, dissolved oxygen... - Publications
