The Trophic State of Alberta Lakes report summarizes average yearly values (concentrations) for all years of data for Alberta lakes. The variables summarized are three indicators of a lake’s productivity or fertility: total phosphorus, chlorophyll-a and Secchi depth.

Lake Water Quality Data (Report Details)

The Lake Water Quality Data report provides data for the lake selected. The report can be viewed in two ways:

• Detailed Data option: provides all the data over the period of record, for several commonly requested water quality variables. The data are provided in table format.
• Average Annual Trophic Data option: provides annual averages over the period of record, for three variables that are commonly associated with a lake's productivity or trophic state: total phosphorus, chlorophyll-a, and Secchi disk visibility. The annual averages are provided in table or graph format.

River Network Station Water Quality Data (Report Details)

The River Network Station Water Quality Data report provides data for Long-Term River Network monitoring stations in Alberta. The report provides data in two ways:

• Graphical display: (coming soon) a single water quality variable for one river station over time.
• Data download: common water quality variables for one or more stations. The data are provided in table format.

Data used to produce these reports are refreshed frequently from the surface water operational database (WDS). Data will not appear in these reports until they have fully passed the AENV validation process.

These reports are designed for on-screen viewing. Data reports can be downloaded to a comma delimited text file (.csv) and most graphs can be exported to an Acrobat file (.pdf). Reports are best viewed using Internet Explorer browser. Printer-friendly versions are not available at this time.
