Kezar Stream Outlet
The Kezar Outlet Stream flows south from the Lower Bay of Kezar Lake. The stilling well was attached to an old fish dam structure just upstream of Harbor Road. Water quality monitoring data have been collected since 2015.
Water quality
water temperature
Water temperature at the Kezar Outlet Stream followed closely with observed air temperature (hourly data obtained from the Fryeburg weather station).
historical water temperature
Median annual water temperature (denoted by solid line in grey boxes) at the Kezar Outlet Stream has remained relatively consistent since 2015. Some years have more variability in water temperature than other years. 2020 had an incomplete dataset due to a lost logger.
flow
The large, but delayed, volume of water flowing from the lake through the Kezar Outlet Stream allowed water level to increase and decrease much more gradually compared the smaller headwater streams. Precipitation data obtained from the Fryeburg weather station.
