National Monitoring Network Progress Report: Environmental Issues Design

This report outlines the progress made by the National Monitoring Network in addressing oxygen depletion and nutrient enrichment. Al Korndoerfer, Chair of the Design Workgroup, provides insights into the parameters, sampling protocols, and spatial resolutions developed for these key environmental concerns. The report also discusses next steps in finalizing the design for all resource areas and expanding the network to address remaining environmental issues.

Presentation Transcript

  1. Design Workgroup National Monitoring Network

  2. Introduction • Overview of Progress to Date • Al Korndoerfer, Chair of Design Workgroup

  3. Applying Charge from CEQ • 10 Resource Areas • Concentrated on first two Environmental Issues • Oxygen Depletion • Nutrient Enrichment • Developed Geographic Areas of concern • Developed Parameter list from charge & existing programs

  4. Oxygen Depletion • Parameter list, sampling frequency, spatial resolution, probabilistic vs.. Targeted, sampling protocols • See spreadsheet

  5. Nutrient Enrichment • Parameter list, sampling frequency, spatial resolution, probabilistic vs. Targeted, sampling protocols • See spreadsheet

  6. Next Steps • Finalize design of first two environmental issues for all resource areas • Decide whether rivers are to be fully characterized within NMN or only monitored for loading to coastal/estuaries. • Expand concept to remaining environmental issues
