Variable General Info
Annual discharge ?Comment:USGS NASQAN nitrate concentration data are available for stations across the UMR and Ohio River basins at an approximately monthly sampling interval from 1973 through 1994 (Alexander et al. 1998), although sampling frequency varied over time at some stations. In general, daily discharge data are available. This variable was used in the Flow Weighted Average (FWA) nitrate concentration based on land use submodel. |
