2.4. Data analysis Differences in the data were examined with Kruskal–Wallis tests using Paleontological Statistics v2.15 (PAST) software. We used a hierarchical cluster analysis (CA) to determine the spatial
Understanding and predicting the quality of inland waters are challenging, particularly in the context of intensifying climate extremes expected in the future. These challenges arise partly due to complex processes that regulate water quality, and arduou
Reference work2005, Encyclopedia of Analytical Science (Second Edition) H. van der Jagt Explore book Geochemical Monitoring Water quality monitoring consists of frequent analysis of the main constituents. The required data input consists of: (1) mean composition of the influent; (2) mean compositio...

The goal of the WQP is to be a single point of access for national-scale water quality data to facilitate analysis and decision making at the local, regional, and national scales; the WQP includes results from the late 1800s through present day. The WQP database is growing rapidly in ...
2024.The EPA and the State allow us to monitor for certain contaminants less than once per year because the concentrations of these contaminants are not expected to vary significantly from year to year. Some of the data, though representative of the water quality, is more than one year old....
The highest quality bins were chosen using DASTool34 and then manually curated. All bins for a given site were dereplicated at 99% average nucleotide identity (ANI)35, resulting in a dereplicated set of 2,007 genomes across all sites (≥70% completeness and ≤10% contamination). The ...
We focus here on two on two ecosystem services in this analysis: water quality improvement and biomass-crop harvested for ethanol production. Decisions at broader extents, those that set state or federal policies for example, can also influence local decisions about land-management that affect water...
Quality issues can be addressed by a range of treatment options, which are available such that any level of water quality can be achieved depending upon the use of the reclaimed water (Fig. 3.11) [56]. However, technology alone is not enough to ensure the safe use of reclaimed water and...
Increasing incidences of eutrophication and groundwater quality impairment from agricultural nitrogen pollution are threatening humans and ecosystem health. Minimal improvements in water quality have been achieved despite billions of dollars invested in
