Technical Report · Fri Jan 01 00:00:00 EST 1993

OSTI ID:5775745

Hainly, R A; Barker, J L

The report presents streamflow and water-quality data collected at or near the mouths of 94 tributaries entering the 84-mi reach of the West Branch Susquehanna River between Curwensville and Renovo and at four sites on the river between Curwensville and Renovo in May and July 1984. In addition to the presentation of instantaneous concentrations of constituents, the instantaneous loads for acidity and total-recoverable iron are computed and presented. These values are used to determine the tributaries' individual and cumulative effect on the water quality of the river for Pennsylvania.
