This page is for our Water Quality Monitoring 'Citizen Scientist' Volunteers. The data sheets below are used in the field to record hydrologic conditions at each sampling site. If you are interested in becoming a 'Citizen Scientist' and Volunteering with CBA's Water Quality Monitoring program, please visit the Volunteer page.

Datasheets

CBA Hydrolab Datasheet

CBA Hydrolab Datasheet - Coastal Dune Lakes

LAKEWATCH datasheet - Saline (Choctawhatchee Bay, Gulf of Mexico)- Used to record water depth and clarity at each site. This data is important when comparing depth, clarity (visibility), and corrected Chlorophyll A levels. It also specifies the condition of the tide, i.e. high - falling.

LAKEWATCH datasheet - Fresh (Lakes, Creeks, River; all freshwater bodies & Coastal Dune Lakes)- differs from the Saline datasheet because it specifies the measurement of the lake level
