Summit Lake Level (MCKSUM01L)

This dataset contains lake level and water temperature data for Summit Lake. The data is being collected to track climate change and other impacts on Columbia Basin water supply and to support community climate adaptation. Summit Lake is important habitat for the Western Toad, a Schedule 1 Species at Risk under SARA and was identified as a community priority. This site is part of the Columbia Basin Water Monitoring Framework program (CBWMF). The CBWMF is a coordinated monitoring network that tracks how climate change and other impacts are affecting water supply for communities and ecosystems across the Canadian Columbia Basin region.
