Physico-chemical parameters of river water in Scorff and its tributaries (Morbihan county - France)

The data consist of physico-chemical parameters of river raw water in Scorff and its tributaries, collected since 1999. The parameters are water temperature (°C), hydrogen potential (pH), conductivity, turbidity, nitrates (NO3-), ammonium (NH4+) and ortophosphates (PO4 ---). This data is collected as part of the French Environmental Research Observatory (ERO) on Diadromous Fish in Coastal rivers (DiaPFC). ORE DiaPFC is a research infrastructure dedicated to the study of diadromous fish populations under the influence of anthropic pressure (e.g. agriculture) and environmental changes (e.g. climate). The Scorff River is a small coastal river in southern Brittany (France). The main river is 78.6km long, including a 15km estuary. The mean gradient is 3.6%, annual mean discharge is 5m3/s and the drainage basin area has an area of 480km2
