straw hat Posted September 28, 2012 Author Share Posted September 28, 2012 I found a nifty Disolved Oxygen table. Of course it doesn't allow for decay of organic materiaal but only for optimun dissolved oxygen at various temps. I will post a temperature conversion chart in a few minutes. Table 1 Solubility of Oxygen (mg/L) at Various Temperatures and Elevations (Based on Sea Level Barometric Pressure of 760 mm Hg) Temperature Elevation, Feet Above Sea Level oC 0 1000 2000 3000 4000 5000 6000 0 14.6 14.1 13.6 13.2 12.7 12.3 11.8 2 13.8 13.3 12.9 12.4 12.0 11.6 11.2 4 13.1 12.7 12.2 11.9 11.4 11.0 10.6 6 12.4 12.0 11.6 11.2 10.8 10.4 10.1 8 11.8 11.4 11.0 10.6 10.3 9.9 9.6 10 11.3 10.9 10.5 10.2 9.8 9.5 9.2 12 10.8 10.4 10.1 9.7 9.4 9.1 8.8 14 10.3 9.9 9.6 9.3 9.0 8.7 8.3 16 9.9 9.7 9.2 8.9 8.6 8.3 8.0 18 9.5 9.2 8.7 8.6 8.3 8.0 7.7 20 9.1 8.8 8.5 8.2 7.9 7.7 7.4 22 8.7 8.4 8.1 7.8 7.7 7.3 7.1 24 8.4 8.1 7.8 7.6 7.3 7.1 6.8 26 8.1 7.8 7.6 7.3 7.0 6.8 6.6 28 7.8 7.5 7.3 7.0 6.8 6.6 6.3 30 7.5 7.2 7.0 6.8 6.5 6.3 6.1 32 7.3 7.1 6.8 6.6 6.4 6.1 5.9 34 7.1 6.9 6.6 6.4 6.2 6.0 5.8 36 6.8 6.6 6.3 6.1 5.9 5.7 5.5 38 6.6 6.4 6.2 5.9 5.7 5.6 5.4 40 6.4 6.2 6.0 5.8 5.6 5.4 5.2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

straw hat Posted September 28, 2012 Author Share Posted September 28, 2012 Well, %^#@^&(_@! my computer skills!! I couldn't get it to copy over so I am just typing it. Here goes. 0 Centigrade 14.6 ppm 32 F 5 C 12.8 41 F 10 C 11.3 50 F 15 C 10.1 59 F 20 C 9.1 68 F 25 C 8.2 77 F 30 C 7.5 86 F 35 C 6.9 95 F Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jbeenemd Posted September 28, 2012 Members Share Posted September 28, 2012 Strawhat, I can not explain what is happening right now. With so little water inflow and high water temps, the lake is acting like it is stagnant. Not yet a turnover. Wonder what the big boys at Mo Dept of Conservation have to say about this. Maybe they don't know or they would have said something by now. Jackie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
straw hat Posted September 28, 2012 Author Share Posted September 28, 2012 Obviously I am not sure either. If I had a temperature profiler (a thermometer with a long cord, say 50') and a dissolved oxygen meter it wouldn't take me very long to find out what is going on but I don't have access to those things anymore. Your suggestion about contacting the Mo. Dept. of Conservation is a good one. I have talked to the new bioligist for Stockton a couple of times but can't remember his name. I will try to dig it up and give him a call next week. He certainly would have access to the right equipment. I know he loves his walleye program and oxygen depletion is really hard on walleye populations so he would probably be concerned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
straw hat Posted September 28, 2012 Author Share Posted September 28, 2012 I found his name. It is Adam Bowman and is in the Springfield office. I will call him next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
