LSPA Science

Since the early 2000s, researchers have focused their attention and resources on Lake Sunapee, so much so that the lake is now considered to be a famous site of lake science (limnological) research!

Much of the research over the past two decades has been initiated by members of LSPA’s Scientific Advisory Committee (SAC) and their colleagues (see list below).
