Great Basin National Park Streams and Lakes Data Package 2009-2023

Published by National Park Service | Department of the Interior | Catalog Last Checked: August 01, 2026 at 04:09 AM | Dataset Last Updated: August 15, 2024 at 12:00 AM
This data package comprises discrete data collected for the Mojave Desert Network Inventory and Monitoring Program Streams and Lakes protocol. This protocol is designed to monitor the hydrologic and ecosystem health of nine streams and six subalpine lakes in Great Basin National Park and to identify and assess the effects of stressors such as climate change, groundwater withdrawal, and atmospheric nutrient deposition. Collected data include lake surface elevations, water quality measurements, stream channel characteristics, water chemistry samples, and benthic macroinvertebrate samples. Lake surface elevations, water quality measurements, and stream channel characteristics data covers 2009 to 2023. Water chemistry sample data covers 2009 to 2022. Benthic macroinvertebrate sample data are published in a separate data package.
