Alkalinity, organic carbon, nitrogen, and major anions for Swift Creek, Wake County, NC, USA

This resource includes stream chemistry for Swift Creek, Wake County, NC.. This data set is part of the Urban Critical Zone Cluster in the NSF Critical Zone Collaborative Network. Synoptic stream grab samples were collected semiannually analyzed for alkalinity, total organic carbon, dissolved organic carbon, total nitrogen, total dissolved nitrogen, bromide, chloride, fluoride, nitrate-nitrogen, nitrite-nitrogen, orthophosphate phosphorous, and sulfate. Data are collected for the purpose of (1) trend analysis as a function of space and time; (2) evaluation of the effects of regional geology, anthropogenic perturbations, and weathering processes on stream chemistry; and (3) comparison with stream chemistry from other sites in the Urban CZ cluster.
