2 Overview Objectives Objectives Methods and materials Methods and materials Results Results Bathymetric map Bathymetric map Conclusion and recommendations Conclusion and recommendations

3 Objectives To provide Mr. Don Ingles with a detailed evaluation of chemical and physical parameters affecting his pond. To provide Mr. Don Ingles with a detailed evaluation of chemical and physical parameters affecting his pond. Calculate: Calculate: Water volume Water volume Sediment load Sediment load Maximum and average depth Maximum and average depth Secchi depth Secchi depth Oxygen profiles Oxygen profiles Temperature Temperature pH pH Light Light Conductivity Conductivity Total phosphorus Total phosphorus Chlorophyll a Chlorophyll a Create a bathymetric map using GPS/ GIS technology Create a bathymetric map using GPS/ GIS technology

4 Methods and Materials

5 Results Temperature Temperature Dissolved Oxygen Dissolved Oxygen pH pH Conductivity Conductivity Chlorophyll a and Total phosphorus Chlorophyll a and Total phosphorus Bathymetric map Bathymetric map

11 Light Figure 1. Light profile of D. Ingles pond 31 October 2007 Kenndrick, Idaho, USA

12 Bathymetric Map Area: 12406.40 m 2 Volume of Pond: 13276.66 m 3 Bank Full Volume: 22753.06 m 3 Volume w/ Sediment: 14448.21 m 3

13 Sediment Volume Rate of Sedimentation: 8.58 mm per year

14 Discussion  Monomictic or Dimictic ?  Isothermal conditions at time of survey  Problems associated  Seasonal fluctuations  Daily fluctuations due to P/S and respiration (night vs. day)  The pond as a fishery  Consequences of shallow depth  Aeration  Lack of macrophytes  Seasonal temperature tolerance of fish species  Very warm summers  Freezing in winter

15 Suggestions More suitable fish species More suitable fish species Habitat improvement Habitat improvement Changes in aeration Changes in aeration etc etc
