History
The hydrology and water quality of Little Rock Lake has been studied since the 1980s. In 1984, the two water basins that make up Little Rock Lake were separated by a plastic curtain. One side was used for experimentation, and the other side used as a control. Many studies have been conducted, including research into the effects of acid rain. Water quality, biological, geological and chemical cycles have also been monitored. The curtain was removed in 2013. In 2017, the National Ecological Observatory Network began to monitor the lake.
Recreational fishing is popular at Little Rock Lake.
