Interested In Including Your Lake In LOCSS? Let Us Know!

We recently learned that we have been granted additional funding to expand the LOCSS project.  With this additional funding, we are adding new lakes to our study.  

If you know of a lake that would be a good fit for our project, please let us know!

Many of the LOCSS study lakes are in areas that are being affected by the COVID-19 outbreak. The LOCSS team wants all of our local partners and volunteer citizen scientists to know that your health and safety is extremely important to us.

Target Monitoring Dates

Any lake height measurements that are provided are useful & help us better understand the lake.  But measurements that are taken on certain days are even more useful because we can pair them with satellite data to determine how the volume of water in the lake has changed.  To find out when these target dates occur for your lake, follow the link below.
