TAXONOMIC COVERAGE:
Organisms studied
Methods:

The channel locations were instrumented
with Orion bromide selective electrodes to monitor instream
bromide concentrations and guide the collection of physical
samples. Physical samples were collected at irregular time
intervals weighted to cover the rising and falling limbs more
intensively than other time periods. Upon return, the physical
samples were analyzed by HPLC on a Dionex AS4A Anion column with
detection of 10 ug/L. The table below contains the solute
injection parameters.
Injection Start: 0 minutes
Injection End: 265 minutes
Stock Concentration: 486189 mg/L
Injection Rate: 338 mL/min

Notes: Distances are relative to the established
river markings.
