Table 8. Comparison of short- and long-term trace-metal load estimates for four streamflow-gaging stations in the Spokane River basin, Idaho.

[All values are in kilograms. Short-term records are for 1999-2004. Long-term records are for the periods: Enaville (1992-2004), Pinehurst, Harrison (1991-2004), and Post Falls (1991-2003). Symbols: –, no estimate]
