Using diatoms as biomonitoring tool to identify and interpret changes in water quality of Great Lakes Network parks

Archived

National Park Service

Description

The purpose of the agreement is to add a biomonitoring component to the GLKN’s water quality monitoring program. Long-term monitoring of vital signs is the primary purpose of the Inventory and Monitoring Networks, and water quality was ranked by GLKN park units as one of the most important vital signs to monitor. The use of diatoms as a bioindicator adds a robust integrator of what has happened in a lake and watershed over a short time period (months to years).
