  • A Random Forest in the Great Lakes: Exploring Nutrient Water Quality in the Laurentian Great Lakes Watersheds
    A Random Forest in the Great Lakes: Exploring Nutrient Water Quality in the Laurentian Great Lakes Watersheds By John Dony A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfillment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Master of Applied Science in Civil Engineering (Water) Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2020 © John Dony 2020 Author’s declaration This thesis consists of material all of which I authored or co-authored: see Statement of Contributions included in the thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Statement of Contributions I would like to acknowledge my co-authors Drs. Kimberly Van Meter and Nandita Basu who contributed to the research described in this thesis. iii Abstract A data driven approach was used in this study to investigate the drivers of nutrient water quality across the Laurentian Great Lakes drainage basin. Monitored time series of nutrient water quality and discharge were modelled using a dynamic regression-based model. Random forest machine learning was used as a framework to assess drivers of nutrient water quality, using mean annual flow-weighted concentrations (FWCs) and ratios calculated from modelled water quality, combined with spatial factors from monitored watersheds. Analysis revealed that landscape variables of developed land use, tile drained land, and wetland area played important roles in controlling nitrate and nitrite (DIN) and soluble reactive phosphorus (SRP) FWCs, while soil type and wetland area was important for controlling particulate phosphorus (PP) FWCs.

  • 2012 National Lakes Assessment Field Operations Manual
    DRAFT United States Environmental Protection Agency Office of Water Office of Environmental Information Washington, DC EPA 841-B-11-004 2012 National Lakes Assessment Field Operations Manual 2012 National Lakes Assessment Field Operations Manual ii 2012 National Lakes Assessment Field Operations Manual NOTICE The intention of the 2012 National Lakes Assessment (NLA 2012) project is to provide a comprehensive “State of the Lakes” assessment for lakes, ponds, and reservoirs across the United States. The complete documentation of overall project management, design, methods, and standards is contained in companion documents, including: 2012 National Lakes Assessment: Quality Assurance Project Plan (EPA 841-B-11-006) 2012 National Lakes Assessment: Site Evaluation Guidelines (EPA 841-B-11-005) 2012 National Lakes Assessment: Laboratory Operations Manual (EPA 841-B-11-004) This document (Field Operations Manual) contains a brief introduction and procedures to follow at the base location and on-site, including methods for sampling water chemistry (grabs and in situ), phytoplankton, zooplankton, sediment (diatoms and mercury), algal toxins, benthic macroinvertebrates, and physical habitat. These methods are based on both the guidelines developed and followed in the Western Environmental Monitoring and Assessment Program (Baker, et. al., 1997) and methods employed by several key states that were involved in the planning phase of this project. Methods described in this document are to be used specifically in work relating to the NLA 2012. All Project Cooperators should follow these guidelines. Mention of trade names or commercial products in this document does not constitute endorsement or recommendation for use. Details on specific methods for site evaluation and sample processing can be found in the appropriate companion document.
