Methodology

Methods: 

Conductivity and water temperature were measured using a HOBO datalogger inside a perforated PVC pipe along the bank of the reservoir.

Specific conductance was calculated using a conductivity assistant in the HOBOware software.

NOTES AND COMMENTS:
Datalogger failures occurred between May 5, 2014 and July 30, 2014 as well as between October 13, 2014 and December 4, 2014. Another logger replacement potentially took place on December 30, 2014. This replacement will be confirmed and the dataset updated as sooon as possible.

FLAGS:
1 -- Datalogger not deployed
2 -- Datalogger malfunction

Maintenance: 

Measurements completed for year
