Summary

Abstract: This volunteer team, later dubbed "The Insomniacs", was made up of
boat groups from various organizations in the Rhode Island and Massachusetts
area with an interest in water quality issues in Narragansett Bay and its
watershed. We started on a cool summer evening in June of 1999 with 8 boats
covering more than 80 stations in upper Narragansett Bay, the Providence River,
Greenwich Bay, and Mt. ...

Purpose: Summertime distribution of low oxygen in water column of upper half of
Narragansett Bay, RI USA, is measured. Surveys occur monthly June-Sept.
Surveys have occurred since 1999-present.

Sponsor: Narragansett Bay Estuary Program and NOAA "Bay Window" grant to state
of RI and Univ.RI and Brown University (W. Prell - Geosciences Dept.)
