  • Water Quality Monitoring of the Chedoke Creek Watershed Analytical Chemistry, Fall 2014, Redeemer University College

    Water Quality Monitoring of the Chedoke Creek Watershed Analytical Chemistry, Fall 2014, Redeemer University College

    Water Quality Monitoring of the Chedoke Creek Watershed Analytical Chemistry, Fall 2014, Redeemer University College What we did and why: The lab portion of our analytical chemistry course focused on monitoring the quality of water at different locations throughout the Chedoke Creek watershed which drains into Cootes Paradise (highlighted in blue in the map below). Over the past decades, significant efforts have gone into restoring Cootes Paradise to its original wetland, in hopes that plants, fish, birds, and other wildlife may thrive and flourish. However, Cootes Paradise suffers from a number of environmental stressors, including sewage contamination and excess nutrients coming from the wider watershed which can cause eutrophication, a condition in which there is undesirable algae growth and depletion of dissolved oxygen in the water. The Chedoke Creek and its tributaries run through a highly urbanized area of Hamilton and are known to be contaminated with sewage likely caused by cross-connections between sanitary and storm sewers in homes on Hamilton Mountain. By monitoring the water quality at specific locations within the watershed, we hope to raise awareness of this issue as well as to provide further information to quantify the problem and identify particular problem areas so that the City of Hamilton can continue to address this complex issue. How often and where: Throughout the semester, samples were collected on six occasions from five sites throughout the Chedoke Creek watershed, all along the Niagara Escarpment and easily accessible from the Chedoke Radial Trail (Bruce Trail). These sites included Scenic Falls, Princess Falls, Mountview Falls, Westcliffe & Cliffview Falls, and Chedoke Falls (see map below).
