abstract: This dataset includes physical and chemical data collected in Saginaw Bay, Lake Huron from 1991 to 1996. All of these data were collected as part of a larger effort to monitor and assess the impacts of the zebra mussel (Dreissena polymorpha) on the Saginaw Bay ecosystem. Although mussels were found in the bay in 1990, the first large recruitment did not occur until the summer of 1991. Thus, the data presented herein reflect physical and chemical conditions, and subsequent changes, during the initial years of the mussel’s invasion into the bay.
purpose: Soon after zebra mussels were discovered in the Great Lakes in 1988, Saginaw Bay was identified as an ideal location to assess ecological changes that might result from the filtering activities of this organism. Specific considerations that led to the decision to initiate a monitoring program in the bay were (1) at the time, the zebra mussel was not yet established in the bay, thus baseline conditions immediately prior to the mussel’s invasion could be documented; further, previous surveys of water quality parameters in 1974-80 (Smith et al., 1977; Bierman et al., 1984) could provide a longer term perspective to assess potential changes; (2) the bay had extensive areas of hard bottom, along with ideal temperature and food regimes, and thus large populations of mussels were expected to develop; (3) there existed an important commercial and sport fishery that could be affected; (4) with a natural gradient between the eutrophic inner bay and the more oligotrophic outer bay, the bay provided an opportunity to assess impacts over a wide range of trophic conditions, and; (5) the bay was an Area of Concern as designated by the International Joint Commission and the subject of remedial action by the State of Michigan. After a decade of little or no monitoring in the bay, surveys of selected physical and chemical variables not only provided information to assess changes induced by the zebra mussel, but they also provided information to assess the bay’s response to continued efforts to improve water quality.

description: The Secchi disk (or Secchi disc), as created in 1865 by Angelo Secchi, is a plain white, circular disk 30 cm (12 in) in diameter used to measure water transparency or turbidity in bodies of water. The disc is mounted on a pole or line, and lowered slowly down in the water. The depth at which the disk is no longer visible is taken as a measure of the transparency of the water. This measure is known as the Secchi depth and is related to water turbidity. [Wikipedia, 2021-09-02]
