Sailors, hoofers, lake enthusiasts and researchers! Measurements from Lake Mendota, Trout Lake and Sparkling Lake buoys are available on your iOS device now! Supported by the NTL- LTER (North Temperate Lake - Long Term Ecological Research), this iOS app displays the water and air temperature, water clarity, thermocline depth, and other lake parameters in real time measured on buoys in Lake Mendota, Dane County, Trout Lake and Sparkling Lake, Vilas County, Wisconsin, USA. The data is collected by the Center of Limnology, UW-Madison.
