Bear Lake to Receive Water Quality and Weather Monitoring Equipment

2015 (approx.)

Detailed Description

Starting in early April 2018, two pontoon-type platforms with USGS monitoring equipment will be deployed onto Bear Lake to collect high-quality data through September 2022. The equipment will take near real-time weather and water-quality measurements, such as water temperature, dissolved oxygen concentration, depth, pH, wind speed, as well as others to assess a variability of associated parameters around the lake.
