Weekly and high frequency temperature profile data and Secchi depth, Mohonk Lake, NY, USA, 1985 to 2017
We, the staff, volunteers and associates of the Mohonk Preserve, have been collecting profiles of temperature data and Secchi depths in Mohonk Lake beginning in 1985. Mohonk Lake is small (6.9 ha), deep (zmax=18.5m), oligo-mesotrophic lake, dimictic, glacially formed system on the northern Shawangunk Ridge, New York State, USA. The temperature profiles can provide information on the lake thermal structure and can be used to calculate physical variables such as thermocline depth and thermal stability. We collected data weekly with two exceptions: 1) 01 Jan 1985 to 09 August 1985 when temperature profiles were collected daily and 2) in 2017, when temperature profiles were collected every 15 minutes and down-sampled to daily means.
Secchi disk depth (ZSD) measurements in the California Current 1949-2021
The Secchi disk depth (ZSD) measurements made in the California Current 1949-2021 were compiled from multiple sources but mostly from the California Cooperative Oceanic Fisheries Investigations (CalCOFI) cruises. An earlier version of this dataset was described in Aksnes, D.L., and M.D. Ohman. 2009. Multi-decadal shoaling of the euphotic zone in the southern sector of the California Current System. Limnol. Oceanog. 54, 1272–1281. This updated dataset was used in Kahru, M., Z. Lee, and M.D. Ohman. 2023. Multidecadal changes in ocean transparency: decrease in a coastal upwelling region and increase offshore. Limnol. Oceanogr., in press.

Yale-Post Long-Term Study Lakes, CT: secchi, 2004-2009
Long term data for 6 lakes: Bridge, Dodge, Rogers, Pattagansett, Quonnipaug, and Hayward. Data for 13 other lakes included with the long term data. This was collected for a study which is outlined in Post et al. 2008. Data collection is currently ongoing only, but only for the 6 long term study lakes. They are a couple years behind on analysis and so data are only available through 2010 (per communication with dataset owner).
Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR): Quabbin Reservoir and Ware River watershed Secchi depth, 2005-2008
The Department of Conservation and Recreation, Division of Water Supply Protection is the state agency charged with the responsibility of managing Quabbin Reservoir and its surrounding natural resources in order to protect, preserve and enhance the environment of the Commonwealth and to assure the availability of pure water to future generations. As part of this effort, the Environmental Quality Section maintains a comprehensive water quality monitoring program to ensure that Quabbin Reservoir and its tributaries meet state water quality standards. As part of this task, the Environmental Quality Section performs the necessary field work, interprets water quality data and prepares reports of findings. This annual summary is intended to meet the needs of the decision makers, the concerned public and others whose decisions must reflect water quality considerations
Douglas Lake (MI) South Fishtail Bay Secchi Depth dataset
Secchi depth readings for South Fishtail Bay, Douglas Lake, MI taken by associates of the University of Michigan Biological Station (UMBS). First reading is from 1925 but sampling intensity increases in the 1970's. Values range from 2.25 m to 7 m. In the early 1970s the University of Michigan Biological Station initiated a series of research projects concerning the quality of the lakes in Northern Michigan under the support of the National Science Foundation through the Research Applied to National Needs (RANN) program. Dr. John Gannon joined the Biological Station's staff in 1972 and directed this program for six years. This research had significant impacts on water quality management of lakes throughout Northern Michigan. The Biological Station continued to receive grants for water quality research for several years after the RANN program had terminated. The Tip of the Mitt Watershed Council has coordinated and sponsored the Volunteer Lake Monitoring Program for over 20 years. Presently, volunteers monitor 35 lakes spread throughout Antrim, Charlevoix, Cheboygan, Emmet, and Montmorency Counties (map below). The objectives of the program are to collect baseline data, characterize lake ecosystems, identify specific water quality problems, determine water quality trends, and, most importantly, inform and educate the public regarding water quality issues and aquatic ecology. Monitoring water quality does not ensure clean water, but rather provides valuable information to help protect and improve water quality in the lakes of northern Lower Peninsula of Michigan.
Minnesota Pollution Control Agency Lake Monitoring Program (MPCA) Citizen Lake Monitoring Program Secchi
“The CLMP is a cooperative program combining the technical resources of the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) and the volunteer efforts of citizens statewide who collect water-quality data on their lakes. The CLMP involves voluntary participation of citizens residing on or near lakes or those who are frequent lake users. CLMP participants are asked to take weekly transparency measurements on their lake during the summer using a Secchi disk. A minimum of eight to ten readings per season are required in order to adequately define each summer’s water quality. Data collected by CLMP volunteers are entered into the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s water quality database (called STORET) along with all other water quality data collected by the MPCA. These data are used to analyze water quality trends, characterize trophic status, and provide a basis for water quality goal setting."
USGS Shingobee Lake (MN) Secchi Depth dataset 1989-2010
The Interdisciplinary Research Initiative (IRI) provides the opportunity for fundamental interdisciplinary research of interactions within the hydrologic system on a watershed scale, to increase the basic understanding of watershed hydrology, and to provide information necessary for better management of our Nation's water resources. Management of water resources often is dependent on understanding the effects of residence time on ecosystem processes. The focus of the Minnesota IRI is on aquatic systems that have greatly different water and, presumably, chemical residence times. Research on the hydrology, geochemistry, and limnology of the Williams Lake watershed began in 1978, and reports describing the hydrologic setting, limnology, and geochemistry of the site are available on request. Study of the interaction of the lake with ground water, evaporation, and biogeochemistry has continued to the present (1993). Study of the Shingobee Lake site began in 1989 at the inception of the IRI effort.
USGS Williams Lake (MN) Secchi Depth Dataset
Research on the hydrology, geochemistry, and limnology of the Williams Lake watershed began in 1978, and reports describing the hydrologic setting, limnology, and geochemistry of the site are available on request.
Mean annual Secchi depth measurements in the period starting in 1969 provide a measure of water column transparency in the CalCOFI inshore and offshore areas, 1969 - 2004.
The Secchi depth provides a measure of water turbidity. Measurements are made as part of the California Fisheries Cooperative Investigations (CalCOFI). Secchi depth is measured on each station on each cruise. The mean annual is obtained by averaging stations over time and at stations defined as either inshore or offshore.
STEREO-B Carrington Maps for the SECCHI EUVI Telescope
Synoptic (or Carrington) Maps comprise an efficient method to summarize both short term and long term coronal evolution. This resource contains East and West limb maps from the Cor1 and Cor2 coronagraphs, East(West) limb maps for HI1/2-A (HI1/2-B) imagers, and central meridian maps from the EUVI telescope. Maps are available for each Carrington Rotation since the beginning of the STEREO mission. The maps demonstrate the evolution of the corona from a relatively simple, two-sectored structure to an increasingly complex multi-sectored structure. Distortions and discontinuities in the streamer belt visible in the limb maps are associated with active regions on the sun, the shape of the current sheet, and coronal mass ejections. Meridian maps for EUVI illustrate the corresponding structures and long-term changes in the lower atmosphere.
