Student Watershed
Watch
The
purpose of this website is to provide teachers, students, and others access to
the student data collected through this program.
The viewer
at full extent:

Viewing certain years
In order
to see which color goes with a certain year, press the legend tool
(upper far left). The legend appears on the far right.

When
looking at the viewer, the data collected from all years is visible. It is set up to where the more recent data
is visible over previous years. So, in
the event that you wanted to see if a certain location had been used in 1995,
it will be necessary to turn off all layers above 1995 (or turn off all other
site data). It will also be necessary
to make the 1995 Sites layer active in order to query and see the attribute
information.

Querying
In order
to query (or see the attribute information), you’ll need to zoom into a certain
location. Press the identify tool
and click on that location. You’ll see the attribute information along
the bottom of the screen.

The attribute information is the same that
is used in the Stream Sampling Results.
The following provides a description of what the attribute fields are
relative to the actual stream data.
TEMP_§C__ = Temperature in Celsius Up
TEMP_§C_1 = Temperature in Celsius Down
TEMPERATUR
= Temperature Difference in Celsius
TEMP_DIFF_
= Temperature Difference Q-value
TURBIDITY_
= Turbidity Secchi Depth (m)
TURBIDITY1 =
Turbidity Q-value
TOTAL_SOLI =
Total Solids mg/L
TOTAL_SO_1 =
Total Solids Q-value
DISSOLVED_ =
Dissolved Oxygen mg 02/L
DISSOLVED1 =
Dissolved Oxygen Q-value
BOD_5_MGO2 = BOD-5 mg O2/L
BOD_5_Q_VL = BOD-5 Q-value
PH_VALUE = pH value
PH_Q_VALUE = pH Q-value
TOTAL_PHOS = Total Phosphorus mg P/L
TOTAL_PH_1 = Total Phosphorus mg PO4/L
TOTAL_PH_2 = Total Phosphorus Q-value
NITRITE_AN = Nitrite and Nitrate mg N/L
NITRITE__1 = Nitrite and Nitrate mg NO3/L
NITRITE__2 = Nitrite and Nitrate Q-value
FECAL_COLI = Fecal Coliform #/100 ml
FECAL_CO_1 = Fecal Coliform Q-value
E_COLI___1
= E. Coli #/100 ml
OVERALL_WA = Overall Water Quality Q-value
OVERALL__1 = Overall Water Quality
BENTHIC_IN = Benthic Invertebrate Index
BENTHIC__1 = Benthic Invertebrate Quality
NOTES = Notes given by the student data
