Mission • Chlorophyll a • Algal types • Photo library
Sampling • Van Dorn • 3 depths: 0 (surface), 3, 6 feet • 4 days: 8/4, 8/18, 8/25, 8/29 • 8 sites on Lake Eau Claire
Chlorophyll a Analysis • Filter for Chlorophyll a • Grind filter • Extract with acetone • Measure at different wavelengths: 630, 645, 665, 750 nanometers • Equation gives Chlorophyll a parts per billion (Chl a mg/m3)
Conclusion • Completing analysis • Documenting algae • Photo Library for Lake Eau Claire
