Dataset Title: Ore Lake, Michigan Water Quality, Physical, Chemical, Biological Survey 2001 Dataset
Dataset Contact: John T. Lehman [email protected]
Dataset Creator:
John T. Lehman ([email protected]), Geoffrey Horst ([email protected]), Derek Applewhite ([email protected])
University of Michigan Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology
Key Points:
The dataset constitutes a comprehensive record of physical, chemical, and biological features of Ore Lake, Livingston County, Michigan from May to September 2001.
Research Overview:
Data were collected to test theories expressed during a Contested Case Hearing to expand treatment capacity of the City of Brighton wastewater treatment facility. Ore Lake historically developed nuisance blooms of cyanobacteria associated with excessive phosphorus and resulting nitrogen limitation. The new wastewater treatment facility reduced phosphate discharge and provided increased concentrations of nitrate. A case study narrative describes the scientific and legal aspects of the case. Data collection and analysis pointed to the presence of a cryptic source of phosphorus income other than from the influent streams, possibly from undocumented septic waste discharges.
Methodology:
Detailed methodology is described for both field sampling and laboratory analyses. The project involved field sampling of Ore Lake and its tributary streams from May to September of 2001. Chemical and biological analyses were conducted at J.T. Lehman's research laboratory on the University of Michigan Ann Arbor campus. Two undergraduates, Geoffrey Horst and Derek Applewhite, assisted as part of their supervised undergraduate research projects.
