Lake Erie Volunteer Science Network - Partners for Clean Streams

"This data was collected by ​Partners for Clean Streams 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.

​‍Partners for Clean Streams (PCS) is striving for abundant open space and a high-quality natural environment, adequate floodwater storage capacities and flourishing wildlife, stakeholders who take local ownership in their resources, and rivers, streams, and lakes that are clean, clear, and safe. PCS was established in 2007 as a 501c3 non-profit watershed organization. PCS programs focus on engaging the community in caring for and learning about the streams and rivers in northwest Ohio and our everyday connection to Lake Erie. Since 2021 PCS has led the Clean Water Action Toledo (CWAT) partnership, a collaboration with Metroparks Toledo, TMACOG, and Toledo Zoo focused on integrating and growing volunteer water quality monitoring across the greater Toledo area with a focus on implementing LEBAF.

This dataset includes only the 4 core sampling parameters collected as a part of the LEVSN program.

本数据集由清洁溪流伙伴组织（Partners for Clean Streams）采集，作为伊利湖志愿者网络采样项目的组成部分。伊利湖志愿者科学网络（Lake Erie Volunteer Science Network, LEVSN）是一个区域性实践共同体，旨在赋能社区成员采集、共享并参与水质数据工作，以保护与改善伊利湖生态环境。

清洁溪流伙伴组织（PCS）致力于打造充足的开放空间与优质自然环境，具备足够的洪水调蓄能力与繁盛的野生生物群落，培育资源属地化管护的利益相关方，同时守护洁净、清澈且安全的河流、溪流与湖泊。该组织于2007年成立，是一家获得501(c)(3)资质的非营利性流域保护组织。其项目旨在引导社区成员关注并了解俄亥俄州西北部的溪流与河流，以及大众日常生活与伊利湖的紧密关联。自2021年起，清洁溪流伙伴组织牵头托莱多清洁水行动（Clean Water Action Toledo, CWAT）合作项目，与托莱多都会公园（Metroparks Toledo）、托莱多都会地区政府理事会（TMACOG）以及托莱多动物园（Toledo Zoo）携手合作，致力于整合并拓展大托莱多地区的志愿者水质监测工作，重点推进LEBAF的落地实施。

本数据集仅包含伊利湖志愿者科学网络项目采集的4项核心采样参数。更多计算参数、统计数据与报告可通过https://www.clevelandwateralliance.org/lake-erie-volunteer-science-network 获取；有关清洁溪流伙伴组织的更多详情，请访问https://partnersforcleanstreams.org/
