Summary
These data files include georeferenced water-quality data with associated time stamps (CDT) for basic water-quality parameters (temperature, specific conductivity, pH, and dissolved oxygen) for 13 stationary multi-parameter sondes in the vicinity of the lake water release structure. One stationary sonde also collected chlorphyll and turbidity data. These data were collected at 5 minute intervals. Cross-sectional water-quality data (basic water-quality parameters plus chlorophyll and turbidity) were also collected at three transect lines (40-50 feet wide) located in the outlet channel downstream of the structure at varying time intervals. All sonde probes were located approximately 1.5 to 2.5 feet below water surface. All data have [...]

Cross-sectional water-quality data (basic water-quality parameters plus chlorophyll and turbidity) were also collected at three transect lines (40-50 feet wide) located in the outlet channel downstream of the structure at varying time intervals. All sonde probes were located approximately 1.5 to 2.5 feet below water surface. All data have been edited and reviewed.
Water-quality data were collected to document possible water-quality changes in the lake, outlet channel, and the Illinois River that may result from carbon dioxide injection with regard to varying flow conditions from the water release structure. The carbon dioxide injection is a possible Asian Carp control strategy that is being evaluated.
