Water quality
Water quality is currently being sampled at our pond, Rock Creek Spur, and the emergent wetland. A hydro lab is used for sampling the following:
- dissolved oxygen
- conductivity
- salinity
- total dissolved solids
- pH
- oxidation-reduction potential
- temperatures
Water quality data
Listed below are links for water quality data taken each year within the RCESC and Bronson Creek areas by students in the ESR 160 – Intro to Environmental Systems, ESR 202 – Applied Environmental Studies: Prep for Problem Solving, and BI 143 – Habitats: Fresh Water Biology courses offered through Portland Community College.
