CARO Reports - Lower Middle Shuswap (& Lumby)

Sampling

Below is a list of posts, with attachments as received from CARO Analytics Services. The attachments show the analyses for each of our sampling days throughout the years 2013-2022. On some days, analyses were augmented to include metals.

Every sampling day we also used a Hach meter (thanks to Claude Labine) to measure the water's oxygen content at each location, by immersing the Hach probe in the stream and reading the milligrams per litre (mg/L) displayed by the meter. The readings are in the posts, along with the water temperature, the air entrainment percentage, and the atmospheric pressure, from which the meter calculates the Dissolved Oxygen (DO).
