Condition: GOOD (2022) Source
- 5-Year Average Trophic State: 45/Mesotrophic
- Secchi Disk: Average summer reading 11 ft. (SE Georegion average 6.2 ft.)
- Chemistry:
Average summer Chlorophyll 2.5 µg/l. (SE Georegion average 24.7 µg/l).
Average summer Total Phosphorus 17.9 µg/l.
- Trophic State Index (TSI): 42/Mesotrophic. What does this mean?
Mesotrophic lakes contain moderate amounts of nutrients, and contain healthy, diverse populations of aquatic plants, algae, and fish. Occasional algae blooms may occur. If the lake is deep enough to stratify, the hypolimnion often becomes low in oxygen by the end of summer, and may result in some phosphorus release from the sediments. Mesotrophic lakes are characterized by moderately clear water, but have an increasing chance of low dissolved oxygen in deep water during the summer.
