The foxes agree the (public) golf course should be a city park.

Sentinel catching Lake Superior getting a little swirly yesterday

Mendota was knocking at the door

Great morning to be a limnologist on Lake Mendota

Been a little obsessed lately with mapping in crochet. Here’s bathymetry for Lake Mendota in worsted weight wool and acrylic. Each stitch roughly equals 300 sq meters, and each layer represents a depth change of 10 meters. #gischat

Can confirm that Lake Mendota is currently gross. If you process the #Sentinel2 image differently, you can see bright blue (turquoise) at the north of the lake, as well as by Spring Harbor. Dying scums of cyanobacteria? Calcium carbonate precipitation? Satellites are cool.

Heavy spring rains and warm temperatures have created ideal conditions for the unsightly, toxic algae blooms, as well as weeds. madison.com/news/local/env…

Are you a limnologist working on stratified lakes? Then surely you read or used stability metrics like Schmidt stability to quantify how stratified the water column is? But did you ever wonder what they really tell us and how they were developed in the first place?

It’s July and Lake Mendota looks like a lake I’d swim in 😳
