Malayna Wingert, a sophomore from Sterling, NE, lifts a water sample out of Holmes Lake as Anni Poetz and Maddie Carpenter record data. UCARE students of Professor Jessica Corman take water samples at Holmes Lake. The project is to see what makes the local lakes turn green. Is it an influx of nutrients from rain? Warm weather in the summer? They are testing what nutrients promote growth of algae and cyanobacteria in the lake, and they are testing this throughout the year. August 10, 2020.
