Documentation of the Averaging Lake Data by Regions (ALDAR) program / M. Neilson, R. Stevens and J. Hodson.: En36-503/130E-PDF

"As surveillance activity on the Great Lakes expanded, the need arose for an efficient means of facilitating the interpretation of the vast amount of data produced by this multi-station, multi-cruise program. It was recognized that to follow trends in the variables being measured, some attempt had to be made to provide a single number or quantity representative of the lake as a whole. To achieve this objective the computer program ALDAR (Averaging Lake DAta by Regions) was created in July of 1975 by N. Knight, R. Gottinger and E.B. Bennett. This report is a detailed summary of what the program does and how it operates. It is intended to answer the questions most often asked by users of the program of the data summaries generated"--Introd., p. 1.
