SAGIS River Concentration from Diffuse sources

This layer shows the mean concentration of phosphate in the river from Diffuse Sources in mg/L as predicted by the SAGIS model in 2024. Diffuse sources include livestock farming, arable farming, highways, urban runoff, background (from soils), onsite wastewater treatment systems and atmospheric deposition. The data was originally provided by the Environment Agency to The Rivers Trust as point data with multiple points per WFD waterbody. These point values have been averaged to give a single value for each WFD waterbody. Any catchments without a WFD waterbody IDs have been excluded from the analysis.
