The Securing Our Future water quality monitoring database program began in 2006 and is funded by the Dutch government for 3 years. It supports monitoring of chemical, hydrological, and aquatic insect parameters as well as habitat conditions at 163 sites on 129 streams in Mongolia between 2007-2009. Fieldwork was carried out during summer months to assess water quality in rivers in the Arctic Ocean, Central Asian Internal, and Pacific Ocean basins. Program contacts provided for additional information.

Securing Our Future Program “ Water Quality Monitoring Database ” http://www.mongolianriverresources.mn/wqmd/
SOF program started in December 2006 and is a three year program funded by the Royal Government of the Netherlands Supports multiple components, forming a framework to reinforce healthy and responsible economic growth Mongolian Watershed Monitoring Network “ Securing Our Future” program
Chemical Parameters pH, Tem, EC, SS, DO and Saturation Ca 2+ , Hardness, Acidity, Alkalinity, CL - NH 4 + , NO 3 - , NO 2 , PO 4 3- -React, SO 4 2- , CL 2 , Br 2 , I 2 , Fe 3+ , SIO 2 Cu 2+ , Cr 6+ , Fe 3+
Hydrological parameters Stream Weight (m), Average Depth(m), Max Depth(m), Average Velocity (m/c), Max Velocity (m/c), Cross sectional area (km 2 ), Catchment area (m 2 ), Discharge (m 3 /c), Stream Length (m) and Slope (%)
Aquatic Insects One 1-m 2 kick net (600µm) in high current riffles. Sampling continues until at least 200 specimens have been collected. A Surber (mesh size 500µm), riffle (lotic erosional) pool (lotic depostional) and bank (riparian plant) habitats. 3 dip net collections with coarse-mesh nets in low current habitat and under banks. Also can be used to sample the gravel riffle areas where stone-cased trichoptera may be abundant.
Habitat Parameters Epifaunal Substrate/ Available cover Embeddedness Velocity/ Depth Regime Sediment Deposition Channel Flow Status Channel Alteration Frequency of Riffles Bank Stability / left and right/ Vegetative Protection / left and right/ Riparian Buffer Width / left and right/
Data Fieldwork was carried out during the summer period between May to October, from 2007 to 2009. Data were collected at 163 sites from 129 streams follows: 67 rivers (52 %) in the Arctic Ocean Basin (AOB), 47 rivers (36%) in the Central Asian Internal Basin (CAIB) and 15 rivers (12%) in the Pacific Ocean Basin (POB).
