It’s no secret: Lake Tahoe, one of the purest large lakes in the world, is known for its crystal clear waters.

According to researchers at UC Davis, however, the lake’s clarity is dipping.

The UC Davis Tahoe Environmental Research Center on Thursday reported the average annual clarity level of Lake Tahoe for 2016 was 69.2 feet, which is a 3.9-foot decrease from 2015.

The drop in clarity, researchers determined, is due to climate change.

This is one of the many reasons why Mia Hanak, executive director of Tahoe Public Art, has spearheaded a project to promote environmental preservation around Lake Tahoe.
