County Sustainability Group Water Rangers Dataset

The County Sustainability Group is involved in examining the specific challenges we will inevitably face because of global warming, climate change, peak oil, and resource constraints. If we act creatively, we have an opportunity to identify changes that can lead to a healthier, more sustainable lifestyle and a healthier environment—one with cleaner air, abundant water, fertile land, renewable energy , and a vibrant, caring community. Water quality data are collected using tools in the Water Rangers Freshwater Explorer testkit, including portable probes and test strips. Long term trends are tracked and logged on the Water Rangers data platform.

Informations sur la collecte de données

Monthly testing of both ends of the Black River system, from the headwaters in Milford at the Millpond ( both ends ) to the mouth of the river near where it meets Lake Ontario. We may scale back to seasonal testing as the year progresses , depending on what is learned and other conditions. We will begin each test with dissolved oxygen, then ph,alkalinity & hardness, then conductivity, surface water temp, air temp , then bottom depth and secchi depth. All other observations will be noted at the time of testing. Various other locations on lakes & rivers inside PEC and along the shores of Lake Ontario in the Quinte Region will also be tested at times during the spring to fall. Sailors in our group may take some readings out in Lake Ontario and on visits to New Brunswick twice a year we will take readings on the St. John river in Hartland. Annual readings on a few lakes and rivers along the way and into northern Ontario will also be done during visits there.
