A six week study between February 6, 1998 through March 29, 1998 was undertaken to evaluate how various parameters typically measured and analyzed by limnologists can affect a freshwater lake's water quality and its ability to provide a suitable habitat for a diverse species of aquatic plants and animals. The lake selected for this study was Springtree Lake located in the northwestern part of Jacksonville, Florida. The five parameters that were measured included air and water temperatures, turbidity or

analyses is important as a means to evaluate reliability of the measurements regarding (excessive) variances in sampling errors. All of these modifications would aid future researchers with their analyses of their data collections. Most importantly, these changes could enable limnologists to obtain better information to make conclusions about productivity and possibly decide if there are any potential problems, such as leaching and excessive sedimentation or chemicals within the lake, which can greatly affect the lake's
