Summary

This dataset includes continuous dissolved oxygen and temperature data from the nearshore of Lake Ozette, WA. Data were collected using a HOBO (U26-001) dissolved oxygen/temperature sensor housed inside a self-contained PVC well screen installed to a depth of 15cm in the lakebed. Data was collected continuously from October 2018 to May 2019. This data was part of a project that studied the impact of removing nearshore vegetation on the quality of spawning habitat of native Lake Ozette sockeye. The study area consisted of 3 areas where dissolved oxygen and temperature were collected. A spawning control (SC) where sockeye currently return to spawn; a vegetation control (VC) where nearshore vegetation inhibits the amount of sockeye spawning; [...]

Purpose

These data were used determine differences in specific discharge across sites where sockeye currently return to spawn (spawning control, SC); a vegetation control (VC) where nearshore vegetation inhibits the amount of sockeye spawning; and a vegetation treatment (TR) area where nearshore vegetation was manually removed. The goal of this work was to assess if habitat quality can be improved by the removal of nearshore vegetation.
