Järvihavaintoja, a Finnish term translating to "lake observations," refers to the systematic collection of data and information pertaining to lakes. These observations encompass a wide range of parameters critical for understanding lake ecosystems, water quality, and their overall health. Key aspects often monitored include water temperature, water clarity (measured by turbidity or secchi depth), dissolved oxygen levels, pH, and the concentration of various nutrients like phosphorus and nitrogen. Biological indicators such as plankton populations, aquatic vegetation, and fish species are also frequently documented.
The purpose of collecting järvihavaintoja is multifaceted. Primarily, it aids in environmental monitoring, allowing scientists and
