Detailed Description
USGS scientists tow an advanced monitoring platform to its mooring location on Seneca Lake in New York. This is part of an effort to study water-quality conditions and harmful algal blooms—known as HABs—in Owasco, Seneca and Skaneateles lakes in New York. This collaborative effort, funded by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation and the USGS, is in support of the state’s $65 million initiative to aggressively combat HABs in waterbodies across New York.
