Abstract
A collocated sampling study was conducted at three Utility Acid Precipitation Study Program sites (Uvalda, GA; Lancaster, KS; Underhill, VT). Each site was equipped with four identical precipitation samplers, two collecting daily samples and the other two collecting weekly samples. Except for the sampling schedule, all other procedures (e.g., sample transfer, storage, analysis) were the same. This study determined the effect of sampling frequency on: collection efficiency, the precision and chemical composition of the sample, the assessment of deposition amount, and the time required to detect trends in concentration and deposition.
