Notes: Event Time = Time of sampling (Eastern Time) at stream mouth (Taughannock Falls); Sherwood Road (SCSR)- Some algae growth in stream, Center Road (SCCR)- Water was clear, but had a lot of algae growing + overcast/cloudy sky and vegetation growing over stream made it tough to tell the water apperance.
