Abstract
Focusing on headwater lakes and streams near Dorset, Ontario, this program gathers chemical, physical and biological data to investigate long-term patterns and processes in aquatic ecosystems. A watershed scale approach is used to investigate the effects of multiple stressors, including climate change, on water quality and quantity in Ontario’s inland aquatic ecosystems and sustain the functions and services that these systems provide.
Currently CUAHSI is hosting 10-minute data, for a wide variety of parameters, from the Dorset Environmental Science Centre's automated sensing platform on Harp Lake in the Muskoka Region of Ontario.
