Purpose
The goal of this research is to focus on the long-term effect of nutrient contamination in Lake Erie, and its surrounding waters (watersheds?). Particular emphasis will be placed on the Maumee watershed in Ohio, as it is the biggest contributing watershed to Lake Erie (approximately 60%). The parsimonious model will be used to determine long-term total phosphorus loading trajectories in the Maumee Watershed.
This data set is collected for the project titled “Lake Futures: Enhancing Adaptive Capacity and Resilience of Lakes and Their Watersheds - Work Package 1". Lake Futures is a Pillar 3 project under the Global Water Futures (GWF) Program funded by the Canada First Research Excellence Fund (CFREF).
Abstract
The water quality data for downstream of Maumee River (Waterville station) has been collected from the National Center for Water Quality Research housed at the Heidelberg University. Data obtained from United States Census Bureau websites include; population of county, detergent use, fertilizer use, land use, crop area, and livestock count. These data have been used as inputs for the parsimonious model.
