CLAMP is a volunteer lake monitoring program started in 1999 by Iowa Lakeside Lab and Friends of Lakeside Lab. Volunteers collect water samples throughout the summer on nine lakes in Dickinson County, Iowa. The goal of CLAMP is to provide long term monitoring data for algae conditions and educate local citizens about lake ecology. Click on the balloons below to see recent water quality data for that sampling location.
West Okoboji Lake was sampled June 8th. Water clarity was very good with a Secchi depth reading of 22 feet (about 7 meters)! The picture above shows Secchi disk in use on West Lake. Water quality data will be coming soon to a lake near you.
