Organisms studied
Methods:

Water samples were collected and returned to the lab where it was filtered through a 25mm GFF
glass fiber filter cation samples are stored in 60 ml HDPE bottles and are preserved with 1 ul /ml
Ultrex HCL. Anion samples are stored in 30 HDPE bottles.

Cation samples are run on a Perkin Elmer atomic absorption spectrophotometer. Lanthanum
cloride was added to 10% prior to running calcium samples.

Anions samples were run on a Dionex liquid chromatographer using fast sep column

Sampling Description.

None
