Science Program
Conduct Applied Scientific Research
The purpose of this project is to expand on the remote sensing research in the near-shore of Lake Tahoe in
order to investigate methods to quantify and map the distribution of 1) suspended fine sediments, 2) chlorophyll, and 3) CDOM in the water column, and map the bottom-type and bottom characteristics of the near-shore to quantify the spatial extent of 4) periphyton, 5) aquatic plants (macrophytes), 6) invasive clam beds, 7) substrate of different sediment classes.
