Hydrology, Water Budget, and Water Chemistry of Lake Panasoffkee, West-Central Florida

摘要

The purpose of this report is to document the surface-water hydrology, groundwater interactions, water budget, and geochemistry of the Lake Panasoffkee watershed. The interaction between groundwater and Lake Panasoffkee is evaluated using multiple approaches, and the water budget of the lake is refined by incorporating onsite measurement of lake evaporation rates. Geochemical analyses are used to help describe the interaction of surface water and groundwater in the watershed.
