Lake Spectral Library: Madison Lakes (September 2003)

Six lakes in south-central Wisconsin were visited during the month of September 2003. Lake spectra were collected on all lakes using ERSC's Ocean Optics dual spectroradiometer system. Water chemistry samples were acquired simultaneously with the spectral measurements. All data were collected by Mark Nordheim and Nicholas Christianson for the Environmental Remote Sensing Center at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.

Support for this project was provided by the NASA Affiliated Research Center (ARC) program, the North Temperate Lakes Long-Term Ecological Research site, and the Gaylord Nelson Institute for Environmental Studies.
