Water Clarity: August 31, 2011

This was the last day of the season for monitoring phosphorous, chlorophyll a (a measurement of algae) and several other variables. When I receive the all the test results from the state lab, I'll report them here.  In the mean time I will continue to get water clarity readings every two weeks to see how the lake clears up as winter approaches.  As the temperatures cool, and the days get shorter the algae will begin to die down and the water will clear up.
