Cary Wappinger Creek Storm Data

This dataset is a contribution to the Cary Institute of Ecosystem Studies. The objective of the project was to sample the streamwater during flood events in order to understand dynamics of N, P, Na, Cl, suspended sediments, pH, dissolved oxygen (DO), dissolved organic carbon (DOC) & turbidity during different types of floods. Floods were selected to represent different times of the year and different conditions such as after a significant snow melt, after a prolonged drought, etc. Sampling was done March 11-15, 2013, June 6-12, 2013, April 29-May 5, 2014, September 28-October 5, 2015 and October 20-26, 2016. A previous study done in 1991 by Xiaoying Ma is included here as a pdf document; the data were not tabulated.
