Lake Erie Volunteer Science Network - Tinkers Creek Watershed Partners

"This data was collected by Tinkers Creek Watershed Partners as a part of the Lake Erie Volunteer Network Sampling program. Lake Erie Volunteer Science Network (LEVSN) is a regional community of practice that empowers community members to collect, share, and engage with water quality data for the conservation and enrichment of Lake Erie.

​Tinker’s Creek Watershed Partners’ water quality monitoring program teaches volunteers how to monitor a stream, show what conditions to look for that are cause for concern, and who to contact with questions and data. The data will be compiled and logged online and shared with partners to monitor the health of the creek and to find sites for future restoration projects. Volunteers are encouraged to adopt a site where they take on the sampling every month for their favorite spot in the watershed. These data help prioritize work and track pollution.

This dataset includes only the 4 core sampling parameters collected as a part of the LEVSN program. Additional calculated parameters, statistics, and reports can be found at https://www.clevelandwateralliance.org/lake-erie-volunteer-science-network and additional information about Tinkers Creek Watershed Partners can be found here: https://tinkerscreek.org/volunteer-tinkers-creek/"
