Surface water and sediment quality data in the Grand River Watershed, focused on Belwood and Conestogo reservoirs

This dataset was developed in order to improve the understanding of long-term nutrient retention within reservoirs and to quantify the potential contributions of reservoir nutrient legacies to current and future water quality in watersheds around the Great Lakes. Specifically, this dataset will provide information on the accumulation of nutrients within the reservoirs at Lake Belwood and Conestogo Lake located within the Grand River Watershed. Note, that this data set is collected for the project titled 'Lake Futures: Enhancing Adaptive Capacity and Resilience of Lakes and Their Watersheds'. Lake Futures is a Pillar 3 project under the Global Water Futures Program funded by Canada First Research Excellence Fund.
