Abstract
CRWA's advocacy and design work require a strong scientific and holistic understanding of the Charles River watershed. As a result, CRWA began a comprehensive water quality monitoring program for the Charles River and its tributaries in 1995, which includes a foundation of water quality data generated by volunteers. This data provides baseline information of the river's health and allows for the analysis of spatial, temporal, and meteorological water quality trends for a number of water quality parameters.
CUAHSI Staff downloaded the CRWA data from the CRWA website, reformatted the data, and published the data with CUAHSI's HydroServer.
