Abstract

This is a series of data-collection dives taking place in the cave system of Manatee Springs State Park, Levy County, Florida, USA between 7/20/2025 and 10/11/2025. Karst Underwater Research (KUR) cave divers swam the main conduit and each of the major tributary tunnels with a YSI EXO3 datasonde collecting real-time pH, temperature, specific conductivity, and dissolved oxygen data. Nine water grab samples (500ml Nalgene) were also taken for analysis of nitrate and others at locations marked on the KUR Manatee Springs Cave Map.
