Summary

Ten groundwater piezometers and lake-level stilling wells were deployed in Upper Klamath Lake (UKL), Oregon during May through October 2017. Piezometers and stilling wells were deployed in pairs so that water levels could be measured relative to a common measuring point (MP) at each location. Piezometers and stilling wells were instrumented with recording pressure transducers. Discrete depth-to-water check measurements were collected at all ten locations at about two-week intervals using a calibrated electric water-level tape to verify and, if necessary, correct the continuous data record. This data set contains discrete depth-to-water check measurements.

Purpose

Discrete water-level check-measurements were collected in to verify and, if necessary, correct continuous groundwater and lake depth-to-water data. This data release accompanies the publication of the U.S. Geological Survey Open File Report "Benthic Vertical Hydraulic Gradient Data from Upper Klamath Lake, Oregon, 2017 " by Nicholas Corson-Dosch.
