Bay of Panama Water Quality Monitoring Project_Salinity and Conductivity, all stations
Abstract
Bay of Panama water quality monitoring program Salinity and Conductivity for all seven sites. The Bay of Panama is located south of Panama City. The monitoring consists of 7 sites located between 12 and 70km from Southeast of Panama City. Weekly depth profiles are collected at approximately 5-meter intervals using YSI EXO 2 & EXO 3 sondes. Measured parameters include temperature, salinity, conductivity, pH, turbidity, chlorophyll, and dissolved oxygen.
