All the P in China
Data Story
Explore the role of P (phosphorus) in two Maine lakes, China Lake and Allagash Lake, and consider future research or solutions for observed change.
Welcome to this Tuva data story! China Lake and Allagash Lake are both in Maine, but Allagash Lake is in the northern part of the state where very few people live. China Lake is in the central part of the state near the capitol, Augusta, and surrounded by seasonal “camps." Volunteers collect data to monitor the health of the lakes. In this activity, you will compare the Phosphorus concentration in two Maine lakes and how it has changed over time. Click Next to begin!
