Portnoy JW, Winkler MG, Sanford PR, Farris CN. 2001. Kettle pond data atlas : Paleoecology and modern water quality : Cape Cod National Seashore. National Park Service. Wellfleet, MA

This report summarizes both regional (outer Cape Cod) and pond-specific paleoecology, and then, with this post-glacial developmental background, presents a brief history of research and monitoring by the National Park Service (NPS) and others, describes pond water quality in a regional context, synthesizes and interprets recent water quality data for each of the 20 kettle ponds, recommends future monitoring and research, and discusses the management implications of monitoring results.
