Once your order has been prepared for shipment and ships, you will receive a Shipment Notification email with carrier and tracking information.
Shipping and Delivery Estimates
The 'Ships' timeframe is an estimate of when the item will ship from our warehouse. All items will ship at one time unless you specifically request partial shipment. In which case, the items on your order will ship as they become available. The 'Delivers' timeframe is an estimate of when the item will be delivered to your shipping address after it ships. The estimated delivery time depends on the shipping method you choose during checkout. All estimates are based on business days.

Fondriest offers several convenient shipping options.
| Standard Shipping: | Products shipped via standard service are normally delivered within five business days after shipment. |
| 2-Day Shipping: | For an additional charge, Fondriest offers this expedited shipping option for most products. Products shipped via two-day service prior to 4:00 p.m. EST are normally delivered by 4:30 p.m. local time two business days after shipment. |
| Overnight Delivery: | For an additional charge, Fondriest offers this expedited shipping option on most of products.

| Your Account: | For no additional charge, Fondriest offers shipment on your account for most popular carriers. |
Remember that these estimates are for time in transit only, and that they do not apply until the product leaves the Fondriest warehouse. As the delivery of your order is beyond Fondriest's control once your order leaves the Fondriest warehouse, we cannot assume liability for late deliveries, regardless of the delivery method you specify.
Signature Required on Most Deliveries
Most of Fondriest's shipments contain valuable equipment. If you will not be at the shipping address to accept delivery of your product, consider shipping the item to an address where someone you trust will be available to sign for your package, or accept your package if a signature is not required for the delivery. Once your order has prepared for shipment or has shipped, we are unable to change the shipping address. Title and risk of loss to all products will pass to you on delivery. If you are willing to assume the risks of delivering your order without a signature, you may authorize Fondriest to arrange for a delivery that does not require anyone to be at the delivery address.
Undeliverable Packages
Occasionally packages are returned to Fondriest as undeliverable. When the carrier returns an undeliverable package to Fondriest, please contact us to make arrangements for reshipment.
Failed Delivery Attempts
Most of Fondriest carriers make three attempts to deliver a package. After three delivery attempts, the carrier will return the package to Fondriest.
Order Processing
The estimated shipment date on your order is based on product availability, payment processing time, and warehouse processing time and does not include transit time. We do not begin payment processing until Fondriest receives all of the information that is needed and full payment or a full authorization, in the case of credit card or rental orders.
Fondriest will begin payment processing for orders placed on weekends or holidays on the next business day. Business days are Monday through Friday, excluding federal holidays.
Your order for in-stock items that are eligible for same-day shipping must be received before your local time of 2:00 p.m., pending payment processing, for there to be adequate remaining time in the day for your order to be dispatched.
Product Availability
Fondriest makes every effort to ship your product according to the estimated lead times. The estimated lead times are in business days (Monday through Friday, excluding federal holidays).
Although Fondriest makes every effort to ship your order according to the lead time provided, shipping dates may change due to changes in supply. If the lead time changes, Fondriest will contact you via email and provide a revised shipping estimate.
Fondriest makes every effort to supply the products you order, but there may be occasions when Fondriest confirms orders and later learns that it cannot supply the products, either at all or in the quantities ordered. Although rare, these occasions can include when Fondriest learns that the products no longer are being manufactured or they otherwise become unavailable, when Fondriest cannot source components for the configuration you ordered, or when there was a pricing error at the Fondriest Online Store.
In those circumstances, Fondriest will inform you and, if you are interested, Fondriest may suggest alternative products that may meet your needs. If you do not wish to order alternative products, Fondriest will cancel your order for products that cannot be supplied and for any other products that you no longer wish to order as a result, and will refund your purchase price.

Overview
The fully-featured YSI 9300 and 9500 portable photometers accurately analyze all the major inorganic constituents of water. They are rugged, fully waterproof, easy-to-use and provide quick, accurate test results.
Accurate
The photometric technology uses light to measure color changes in water samples treated with a reagent. They are accurate to +/-0.005 at 0.3 absorbency units (au) and resolution is 0.001au. The sample is simply placed in the unique adaptive cell holder and a button pressed. The cell holder automatically adjusts to various round tube sizes.
Flexible
The 9300 and 9500 feature automatic light wavelength selection for each of their pre-programmed test methods. They have easy-to-navigate menus and over 100 test choices, providing full flexibility. The software also remembers the most recent tests, making it even quicker to use next time.
Durable
Both units are sealed to IP67 specifications and run on standard AA batteries. The 9500 can be powered through the USB port from the computer, or via a standalone adapter. Each comes complete with a carry case and room to store the required reagents. Additionally, the 9500 can store up to 500 test results in its onboard memory, with a full audit trail of time, date, and results in chosen units. Once back at base, the test results are simply transferred to a PC by plugging it into the USB port and using the drag and drop file transfer utility.

Scientists studying krill track light levels during Arctic polar night
The Arctic is a fairly well-studied area, but the waters beneath it are something akin to the deep sea in that scientists have yet to tap the true potential they hold. One example of this is the little-known dependency that Arctic krill and phytoplankton have on light at the northern tip of the planet. From other investigations and past studies, scientists know that light is a trigger for the small marine organisms to move up and down in water columns everywhere, cueing them that it’s safe to search for food or signaling that they should hide from predators. But the Arctic is a special place, and its light patterns don’t conform with those found in other regions of our big blue marble.

Silver Springs, where flows are down and nutrients are up, provide outdoor classroom
A hundred years before Disney World, tourists flocked to Florida to see the crystal clear water flowing from the Silver Springs, one of the largest artesian spring systems in the world. Thousands of years before that, the springs' supply of freshwater and food supported early indigenous settlements. Today, the springs and the Silver River that they feed into are suffering from nutrient pollution and reduced flows brought on by Florida's population growth and agricultural production. Those problems have coated the river's bed with algae and cost the system its place as the highest-volume springs in the world.

NSF awards grant to Lacawac Sanctuary
The National Science Foundation has awarded the Lacawac Sanctuary a grant for the construction of a new lab for water quality research, according to the Times-Tribune. The $329,094 grant will also support additions to the sanctuary’s visitor’s center. The sanctuary will get a new water purification system and its lab will obtain an instrument for measuring phytoplankton, as well as a new spectrophotometer. Overall, the new construction projects will add to the sanctuary’s appeal to researchers from around the world. The sanctuary holds one of the United States’ most pristine lakes, Lake Lacawac, which was created by glaciers and has seen minimal human contact. It attracts prominent researchers, and officials say the improvements will help meet their needs.
