Multibeam backscatter data collected within Lake Powell, UT-AZ during USGS Field Activity 2017-049-FA, using a dual-head Reson T20-P multibeam echosounder (8-bit GeoTIFF, UTM Zone 12N, WGS 84, 2 meter resolution)

High-resolution geophysical mapping of Lake Powell in the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area in Utah and Arizona was conducted between October 8 and November 15, 2017, as part of a collaborative effort between the U.S. Geological Survey and the Bureau of Reclamation to provide high-quality data needed to reassess the area-capacity tables for the Lake Powell reservoir. Seismic data collected during this survey can help to define the rates of deposition within the San Juan and Colorado Rivers, which are the main inflows to Lake Powell. These new data are intended to improve water budget management decisions that affect the natural and recreational resources of the reservoir. Multibeam echosounder bathymetry and...

Limnology data from Lake Powell, desert southwest USA (ver. 2.1, September 2024)

These data were compiled as part of a long-term (1964 - 2022) water quality monitoring program at Lake Powell. Objectives of our study were to release a consistent record of long-term water quality data. The 58-year limnology dataset captures some water quality parameters (temperature, salinity, major ions, total suspended solids) from reservoir filling to present day. It also contains a 38-year record of secchi depth, and a ~30-year record of nutrients, phytoplankton, and zooplankton assemblages. The data were collected from various sites within the Lake Powell reservoir and the Glen Canyon dam. Regular monthly sampling occurred at three sites near the dam and reservoir-wide sampling was generally conducted quarterly,...

Dissolved oxygen predictions for releases from Lake Powell under different management scenarios for Lake Powell releases

Dissolved oxygen estimates were generated to help understand how different alternative management scenarios may affect the likelihood of low dissolved oxygen in Glen Canyon Dam releases. The study aimed to examine the effects of different management alternatives on late summer and early fall dissolved oxygen concentrations in Glen Canyon Dam releases. The estimates represent estimates of dissolved oxygen concentration in Glen Canyon Dam releases between August and October of a given year. These estimates were generated using data collected in Lake Powell reservoir as part of a long-term inter-agency water quality monitoring program conducted by the Bureau of Reclamation, the National Park Service, and the U.S. Geological...
