Abstract:

Sediment, nutrient, and other pollutant loads from storm water runoff in a small Texas watershed have been estimated using an initial strategy of periodic grab sampling and a revised strategy of continuous flow and suspended solids concentration monitoring. Innovative techniques are used to accurately determine suspended solids, nutrient, and general organic loads.
