Field Activity 2015-070-FA

Identifier 2015-070-FA
Purpose Collect pore water and surface water samples, and time-series water quality and flow data from Sage Lot Pond to examine environmental geochemistry and health of the estuary.
Equipment or personnel only. Data, if any, are managed under a different field activity.
Location Sage Lot Pond, Mashpee, Massachusetts, United States
Summary Collected 10 sets of surface water and pore water samples for a suite of nutrients, DIC, DOC, Alkalinity, pH, Radon in addition to time-series sensor data for flow and water quality.
Info derived Geochemistry
