Flow-weighted average concentrations based on mean
loads for water years 1997-2000, unless otherwise
indicated, can be accessed from the following list.
The shorter period of record was used to provide a
consistent period of record because sampling did not
begin in 1996 for all stations. Sampling for one
station did not begin until 1998, as noted on the
diagrams and in Table 1.
Data tables containing the flow-weighted
concentrations, organized according to constituent
group, can be downloaded by clicking on the heading
for the particular group.
Bubble plots for each constituent can be viewed and
downloaded by clicking on the constituent name. Where
data were not available because the constituent was
not sampled at a particular station, the station is
marked with a filled-in triangle; where loads were not
available because too few values were uncensured, the
station is marked with an open triangle (no bubble).
