Abstract | A series of 25 sampling stations was established in the mainstream and tributaries of the Salt River that extend from the source of the stream in Boyle County to a few miles below the site of Taylorsville Dam in Spencer County, Kentucky. Sampling for water chemistry and biota was carried out semimonthly. Data on temperature, oxygen, depth, and discharge, along with analyses for cations(Ca, Mg, Fe, Mn)and anions(PO4, NO3, NO2, CO3, HCO3)have been accumulated and analyzed. Bottom fauna, fishes, and plants have been sampled at each station and relative abundance and species composition of the biota have been made. (Author) |
