GW Scientific Caddo Lake Studies

GW Scientific has established a preliminary long-term station (GCL01) at the Shady Glade Resort marina, adjacent to the Shady Glade Cafe. The station is intended for long-term monitoring of lake hydrology and groundwater conditions at the lake boundary. The data from the station will help provide information related to lake and adjacent groundwater interactions. See the below images and links to select current conditions from the GCL01 station.

The Caddo Biocontrol Alliance produces Salvinia Weevils to release on Caddo Lake to stop the spread of Giant Salvinia. The weevils are raised in greenhouses before they are released into Caddo Lake. Caddo Lake water is used in the greenhouse operations and is withdrawn from the lake near GCL01.

NOTE: GCL01 weather and lake data are currently unavailable due to construction at the Shady Glade Resort. We will resume displaying the current conditions table and links to additional weather and hydrology plots once construction is complete and GCL01 is reinstalled.

Data is automatically retrieved from the station using a Linux version of Loggernet Admin. This allows us a robust and secure communication system. The near-real-time data displays and plotting is achieved through RTMC-Pro.
