water coming out of hillside, new testing location

About this location

• Dataset Dugout water quality monitoring, University of Regina
• Data collector Hilary Ryan
• Location description New location. Water flows out of the hillside and runs down to the stream. It flows year around and the ground is very swampy where it comes out and is difficult to walk in without getting stuck. The water is cold and clear. In the winter a big "glacier" builds up from the water running below the ice to the stream which runs all year long under the ice. I cleared away some of the silt and debris to deepen the shallow rivulet so that I could sample the water. I did the metered readings directly from the water, not a sample cup. I couldn't really fill the turbidity tube as the water is less than 2 cm deep.
