This data set contains salinity, temperature and in some cases PAR and pressure at a number of depths around La Grande River. Sensors collected data over the spring melt season, summer seasons and year-long to monitor the extent of the fresh water plume about La Grande River in both ice free and ice present conditions from 2018-2021. Data was collected continuously for 4-month and year long periods at 10 or 15 minute intervals at discrete locations and multiple depths.
