Alternate Identifier:DOI PLACE HOLDER
Abstract:

This high frequency water-air dataset was collected from large shallow Lake Võrtsjärv (Estonia) with an automated lake monitoring buoy system and was used in the analyses described in the manuscript by Thayne, M.W., B. Kraemer, J.P. Mesman, A. Laas, E. de Eyto, B. W. Ibelings, R. Adrian. “Trophic state effects on antecedent lake characteristics shape the resistance and resilience of lakes following extreme storms”. Dataset contains after every 10-minute collected measurements in the open water periods from years 2010-2019. Under water measurements were conducted with Yellow Springs Instrument multiparameter sonde YSI 6600 V2-4. Underwater measurements contain the collected values of pH, dissolved oxygen, dissolved oxygen saturation, water temperature, specific conductance, water turbidity, chlorophyll concentration calculated by the sensor from fluorescence values, and bluegreen phytoplankton abundance calculated by the sensor from Phycocyanin fluorescence values. Air parameters were collected with the Vaisala multiparameter weather station WXT520 and contain measurements of average wind direction, average wind speed, average air temperature, average air pressure, and cumulative amount of rain between measurement periods. All air measurements were collected 2 m above from the water surface. Additionally, solar irradiance measurements were collected from the automated buoy system with the Licor pyranometer model LI-200, those measurements contain values in two different columns: average solar irradiance in W/m2 and average photon Flux Density values in micromoles per square meter per second.

Methods and protocols used in the collection of this data package
Description:

Lake Võrtsjärv was equipped with a high frequency monitoring platform. Continuous monitoring pH, dissolved oxygen, dissolved oxygen saturation, water temperature, water specific conductance, water turbidity, chlorophyll fluorescence, phycocyanin fluorescence were conducted with a multiparametric sonde (Yellow Springs Instruments (YSI) 6600 V2–4) at one-meter depth. All sensors used for underwater measurements were calibrated according to the manufacturer instructions at least once per month in case of their useage. Air parameters (wind direction, wind speed, air temperature, air pressure, and amount of rain) were collected with the Vaisala multiparameter weather station WXT520 at 2 meters above from the water surface. Global irradiance measurements were collected with the Licor pyranometer model LI-200 also 2 meters above the lake water surface.
