As part of The Georgica Pond Project, the Gobler laboratory has installed a water quality monitoring buoy in Georgica Pond. This device is making continuous, real-time measurements of key water quality indicators that are instantly telemetered to this web site. By clicking on the map below you can inspect the minute-by-minute levels of temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, pH, chlorophyll, and blue-green algae in the southern extent of Georgica Pond. The dates and parameters may be changed to observe more data. The buoy began logging data for the season on April 29th.
