Bear Lake Data Repository
Bear Lake Data Repository
Bear Lake Watch is currently working to build a large and comprehensive data repository of scientific information. Data from completed studies are brought into the repository and are made accessible to scientists for a variety of analyses. This important data resource will serve researchers, administrative agencies, and the greater Bear Lake community. More advanced analysis tools (including machine learning and AI) can be applied to the high dimensional repository data, leading to deeper insights and greater knowledge about the condition of Bear Lake.
Bear Lake Watch continues to conduct fundraising activities to support scientific research. We collaborate with talented scientists and administrative agencies as we strategize and work on ways to build solid science for making better decisions that impact Bear Lake.
Access to the full Data Repository will be available soon.
Bear Lake Watch Special Collection
The Bear Lake Watch Special Collection of documents and other Bear River related information is housed in the S.J. and Jessie E. Quinney Natural Resources Research Library and the Utah State University Special Collections and Archives. This database aims to provide reviewed reports from the work of water scientists, engineers, managers, policy-makers, and concerned citizens. These reports represent experts from academia, industry, and other entities.
In an effort to preserve and collate the materials and provide easy access where possible, the Quinney Library has digitized numerous documents. When possible, this anthology will contain the full-text pdf of each document for online viewing or downloading. Additionally, for those items not available for full text access the site will provide a complete citation including links when plausible.
Bear Lake Watch, incorporated in 1994, is a non-profit group dedicated to the conservation and utilization of the waters of Bear Lake. The issues at Bear Lake are diverse and multifaceted and the aim of Bear Lake Watch is to foster positive discussions and networks among stakeholders.
Anyone can view and/or submit projects in the database but only current Bear Lake Watch volunteers can validate the information. Projects not yet validated will not show. If you have discovered an error with data please let us know by emailing info@bearlakewatch.com.
Your contributions help to fund important scientific research and will make a real and lasting difference, now and for future generations.
