Great Salt Lake Salinity, Climate, and Inflow Data

This resource includes a salinity dataset for the Great Salt Lake that was compiled from all publicly available datasets and Great Salt Lake data pertaining to: evaporation, river inflow, and UPRR causeway bridge exchange flows. It also includes data collected during an experiment performed at the Utah Water Research Laboratory used to develop an equation to convert specific conductance to salinity; derived specifically for Great Salt Lake ion composition and salt concentration. This resource is part of a study \"Seasonal Water and Salt Cycling in the Great Salt Lake after Opening the New Causeway Breach\" which compiled and analyzed available salinity data and evaluated primary drivers of salinity change at the Great Salt Lake including: evaporation, causeway bridge bi-directional flow exchange, river inflow, and evaporation. The analysis was performed from January 2017 to September 2023.

本数据集涵盖大盐湖（Great Salt Lake）的盐度数据，其整合自全部公开可用数据集及涉及以下内容的大盐湖相关数据：蒸发量、河流入流量以及UPRR堤道桥梁交换流量。本数据集还包含在犹他州水研究实验室开展的一项实验所采集的数据，该实验旨在开发一套专为大盐湖离子组成与盐浓度推导的比电导率（specific conductance）与盐度转换公式。本数据集隶属于一项题为《大盐湖新堤道决口后的季节性水盐循环》的研究，该研究整合并分析了公开可得的盐度数据，并评估了大盐湖盐度变化的主要驱动因子，包括蒸发量、堤道桥梁双向流量交换、河流入流量以及蒸发量。本次分析的时间跨度为2017年1月至2023年9月。
