Abstract
Student-collected data on the GVSU Annis Water Resources Institute's two research and education vessels were statistically analyzed for longitudinal trends in water quality parameters. On water quality sampling trips, students collect data on Muskegon Lake, Spring Lake, and Lake Michigan. Observations between years 2006 and 2011 were analyzed to determine any changes in water clarity, color, temperature, dissolved oxygen, turbidity, or pH.
