Resumen:
Lakes, rivers, estuaries and ocean waters control many important natural functions at the regional globallevel. Hence, integrative and frequent long-term water monitoring is required globally. This paperdescribes the main features and innovations of a low-cost monitoring buoys network (MBN) deployed ina temperate region of Argentina. The MBN was designed to record extended time series at high-frequency,which is of great value for the scientific community, as well as for decision-makers. In addition, two innovativedesigns belonging to two versions of moored buoys (i.e. shallow waters and coastal marine waters) werepresented. It was shown that the cost of either of two versions of the buoy is low, which can be considered asthe main advantage.
