Published in: Journal of Open Source Environmental Software, 2026 Nitrosense is an open-source, cross-platform software tool designed for real-time acquisition, visualization, and logging of nitrate/nitrite concentration data from compatible electrochemical or optical sensors. This paper describes the software architecture, system requirements, download instructions, installation procedure, and basic usage. Nitrosense aims to lower the barrier for researchers and water quality managers needing affordable, real-time nitrogen species monitoring. The software is freely available under the MIT license at https://github.com/envsensing/nitrosense and via standalone installers for Windows, macOS, and Linux. 1. Introduction Excess nitrogen in aquatic systems is a major environmental concern. While low-cost nitrate sensors have become available, many lack user-friendly data acquisition software. Nitrosense fills this gap by providing a modular, GUI-based platform that supports serial (USB/RS-232), Bluetooth, and simulated data sources. 2.
