Title | Relation of Irrigation Return-Flows to Water Chemistry and Periphyton in the Lemhi River, Idaho; Research Technical Completion Report, Project A-041-IDA |
Creator | Halbach, Thomas; Falter, C. Michael |
Date | 1974-08-01 |
Coverage | Lemhi River 44.97, -113.6 |
Subject | irrigation-return flow; bioassay; algal growth |
Description | Irrigation development in the Lemhi Valley is related to both the chemical quality of the river water and the instream algal populations. Nitrate concentrations in the river peaked shortly after onset of irrigation in the spring, then decreased through the summer. Nitrates also decreased downriver due to high algal demand and possible dentrification within the soiL Phosphate concentrations increased more slowly than did nitrates after onset of irrigation but increased consistently downriver.... |
