Lake Namekagon Buoy Project

Lakes are incredibly dynamic ecosystems, changing by the hour and revealing patterns across seasons. The Burke Center for Ecosystem Research’s Buoy Project provides real-time water quality data from each lake in the Namekagon Chain.

We have been collecting data continuously at these locations since August 2023, even in winter under the ice. The real-time data currently available coincides with the open water periods when the buoys are deployed on the lakes. Look for updates on the Burke Center Buoy Project on our social media accounts.
