Turbidity <14
Looking very clear today

28 Nov 08:40 by Marissa Hoftiezer

Turbidity less than 14.

Tested due to Paul's report of blackish water downstream at 10:20. Black water observed in the pond and below it, but turbidity normal (even in the pond itself). Black water seemed to be concentrated on the east side of the pond (inflow side from E06A rather than inflow side from W03) but this may have been an artifact of the greater depth on that side. Minor foaming.

YSI simultaneous measurements

Did not sample oxygen this morning, couldn't safely get closer than the edge due to strength of flow. Looks pretty aerated though :D

Big dead fish from yesterday not visible - uncertain if it was covered by water, washed downstream, or eaten by a raccoon.

Rain had stopped when we arr at this site.
YSI measurements taken simultaneously.
Secchi disk just discernable at 14 NTU; turbidity is <14, but had brownish cast and appeared more slightly more turbid than water at WAG-O6a measured in the same session.
