Klamath Network Mountain Lakes and Ponds Monitoring Pilot Project
Sarr D. Klamath Network Mountain Lakes and Ponds Monitoring Pilot Project. 2008
Water quality and aquatic communities were identified as high-priority vital signs. Lakes and ponds can be useful indicators of impacts or changes due to a variety of environmental perturbations across the landscape. These include both near-field impacts such as visitor use or invasive species, and far-field impacts such as atmospheric deposition or climate change. The objectives were to field test the feasibility of draft protocols developed by the USGS Forest and Rangeland Ecosystem Science Center.
