Water Temperature Monitoring

Each year, coastal sites located across the Saugeen Ojibway Nation’s Territorial Waters are selected for installation of temperature monitoring loggers. Most selected locations coincide with nearshore fish and/or larval fish sampling and coastal vegetation sites.

Temperature monitoring is completed using HOBO Tidbit temperature loggers and installed at bottom depth using a cinder block, for the duration of the sampling period (May – October).

In 2020, the Coastal Waters Monitoring Program deployed 17 temperature loggers in the lake throughout the winter to collect a winter temperature data set. 

Pictured here is a cinder block, used to keep that temperature loggers at a specific depth.
