Wasa Lake Lake Field Water Quality (EKISC)

The East Kootenay Invasive Species Council (EKISC) conducts invasive mussel monitoring on various waterbodies across the region. A water sample is taken at each lake using a plankton tow net to test for invasive Zebra and Quagga mussel larva. Ancillary data including temperature, pH, and Secchi depth are taken at each water body and are shared in this dataset. Higher priority lakes (i.e., lakes that receive more transient use) are sampled twice per month, while lower priority lakes are sampled once per month from the beginning of June until the end of September. This dataset contains ancillary data collected from Wasa Lake.

东库特尼入侵物种委员会（East Kootenay Invasive Species Council, EKISC）针对所辖区域内的各类水体开展入侵贻贝监测工作。该团队采用浮游生物拖网对各湖泊采集水样，用以检测入侵性斑马贻贝（Zebra mussel）与纹隔贻贝（Quagga mussel）的幼虫。本数据集同步收录了各水体点位采集的辅助数据，包括水温、pH值及塞氏盘深度。采样频率根据湖泊优先级有所区分：临时到访人流量更大的高优先级湖泊，每月开展两次采样；优先级较低的湖泊则于每年6月初至9月末期间，每月采样一次。本数据集包含从瓦萨湖（Wasa Lake）采集的辅助数据。
