Port of Los Angeles Water Quality Monitoring

Port of Los Angeles water quality data has been collected through multi-parameter sondes at two locations in the Port of Los Angeles, Reclamation Dock and the Pilot Dock. This project allowed Port staff and the public to observe select water quality parameters as they occur in real-time at locations throughout the Los Angeles Harbor through a web-based interface with the sampling devices (sondes). The sondes collect the following water quality parameters: temperature, salinity, pH, dissolved oxygen, chlorophyll, and turbidity.
