Regarding ACOE discharges from Florida's biggest toilet to the St. Lucie (considred IRL south) the SFWMD DBHYDRO database has flow data for the C-44 canal spillway (S80) and the structure on Lake O (S308). There could be WQ data too.
The C23, 24, and 25 canals drain large areas in St. Lucie County and discharge to the IRL. I've seen some WQ data for the spillways, but I wasn't looking for algae food, so not sure if nutrient pollution is monitored. |

I totally forgot about that 3rd. I'm pretty sure it'll have the WQ, that's where all of our data went when I was at the SFWMD collecting the samples.
I'm trying to talk work into letting me have off (without using PTO) for a GIS conference in Palm Beach. I'll let you know. ------------------------- Specializing in sarcasm and condescending rhetoric since 1971. |

Tom- I can probably get access through my work to SJRWMD.

ORCA has done some monitoring and mapping of nitrogen, phosphorous, and toxics. They had stations at the mouths of rivers and creeks and you could look at pulse of stuff associated with discharge events. But they did lose a bunch of funding and had to cut back the number of Kilroys that they had deployed. They still have a few Kilroys live. Kilroys

just a note on the "real time" data stations available: First, yes, I love them and use them. Second, to my knowledge, these data have no formal quality assurance and are not produced under a certification (NELAP or similar). With that in mind, they are useful for observation and comparison purposes but not regulatory. The same criticism is applied to data produced by "citizen scientists" with, for example, MRC or Riverkeepers. So, use the data, but with appropriate caution.

That's great stuff Scombrid. Thanks.
Tom- my map is strictly for a class project. But if it turns out to be a useful tool, I could add the QA/QC stuff later, with proper funding of course... edit: Hopefully DeSantis is serious about Florida's WQ and steps up. ------------------------- Specializing in sarcasm and condescending rhetoric since 1971.
