DNR's Winter Monitoring of the Bay Although most of our stations are sampled from April through October, monitoring will continue at a few sites this winter. This monthly water quality sampling at Fixed Stations will continue to be taken by Water Quality Mapping cruises have stopped for the winter but will resume in March and April of 2009. Archived monthly Water Quality Cruise Maps are available. Satellite imagery and satellite derived water quality data (temperature, chlorophyll, turbidity) of the Chesapeake Bay are updated daily on the Eyes in the Sky page. Regular visitors will be able to see the coverage of ice and snow and the effects of storms on the Chesapeake Bay. Periodically check back to the Eyes on the Bay web site to see updated water quality data and continuing coverage of Chesapeake Bay water quality issues.
