Our Work
UC Davis Tahoe Environmental Research Center (TERC), with support from the State of California and partner organizations, is studying the factors affecting Clear Lake’s water quality and ecosystem health. Researchers are collecting data, developing long-term monitoring strategies, and building models to inform management decisions. As part of this work, UC Davis is piloting a Hypolimnetic Oxygenation System in the Oaks Arm to add oxygen to deep water, which will support a healthier lake by reducing the release of nutrients that fuel harmful algae and methylmercury that accumulates in fish.
