Susquehanna Shale Hills Critical Zone Observatory - Shaver's Creek Watershed Stream Chemistry (2016)

Chemistry for water samples collected from the Shaver's Creek Watershed are presented as part of Shale Hills Critical Zone Observatory research. Samples were collected from four sites along the mainstem of Shaver's Creek: above Lake Perez (SCAL), below Lake Perez (SCBL), at the agricultural site, Cole Farm (SCCF), and near the stream outlet (SCO). Additional spring and groundwater samples were collected from Cole Farm. Grab samples were collected from the stream sites on a bi-weekly to monthly basis during 2016. Samples were processed for major cations, anions, and general physiochemical parameters as soon as possible following collection. This work was funded by NSF Critical Zone Observatory program grants to C. Duffy (EAR 07-25019) and S. L. Brantley (EAR 12-39285, EAR 13-31726).

采自谢弗溪流域（Shaver's Creek Watershed）的水样化学组分数据，作为页岩山丘关键带观测站（Shale Hills Critical Zone Observatory）研究的组成部分予以发布。
研究团队沿谢弗溪干流布设了四个采样点位：佩雷斯湖上游（SCAL）、佩雷斯湖下游（SCBL）、农业用地科尔农场（SCCF）以及溪流出水口附近（SCO）。此外，团队还从科尔农场采集了泉水与地下水样品。
2016年期间，研究团队以每两周至每月一次的频率，从各溪流采样点位采集瞬时水样（Grab samples）。样品在采集后尽快开展分析测试，以测定主要阳离子、阴离子及常规理化参数。
本研究由美国国家科学基金会（National Science Foundation, NSF）关键带观测站项目资助，资助项目分别授予C. 达菲（C. Duffy，项目编号EAR 07-25019）与S. L. 布兰特利（S. L. Brantley，项目编号EAR 12-39285、EAR 13-31726）。
