March 2014 Newsletter: Union College Students Study Ballston Lake

Donald T. Rodbell, Professor and Chair, Geology Department at Union College has been bringing students from one of his geology classes to Ballston Lake for a number of years.

This past January, students took water samples from various depths, looking at how the water in Ballston Lake is stratified. In February, they came back and took some core samples from the bottom of the lake. We hope to have a summary of their data in the next news letter.
