► dataset_eml_abstractheader
This project contains the data, publications, and documentation from the Bard College's Water Lab monitoring program on the Saw Kill Watershed and Roeliff Jansen Kill in upstate New York. The Bard Water Lab is a student-run, community-centered laboratory devoted to bringing water science to water communities. The Bard Water Lab studies water in all its phases—liquid, gaseous, and solid—as we expand watershed-level management thinking to include the concept of airsheds, which requires a better understanding of the interconnectedness of watersheds across the water landscape.

- dataset_eml_datatabletitle: Saw Kill Tributary Water Nutrients Data
- dataset_eml_datatablestartdate: 2017-02-10
- dataset_eml_datatabledescription: Each month, student volunteers and members of the Saw Kill Watershed Community collect samples from 14 sites along the Saw Kill. The Bard Water Lab analyzes these samples for various water nutrient metrics including (Ammonium, Calcium, Chloride, Magnesium, Nitrate, Phosphate, Sodium, Nitrogen, and Phosphorus).
