Long-term lake physics monitoring at Biological Station Lake Neusiedl

Measurements of lake physics (including e.g. water temperature, alkalinity, conductivity, oxygen and Secchi depth) are part of lake monitoring, which is usually carried out by monthly sampling at many regular lake sites (5 to 17 sites depending on the intensity of the measurements over the years). The integrated sample represents the whole water column of this polymictic shallow lake with a mean lake depth of 1.2m. The measurement satisfy the analytical standards of Ö-Norm in Austria. In case of water temperature, also depth profiles were measured during some sampling periods.
