| Abstract/Description or Keywords |
The study consisted of monitoring nutrient concentrations and flow rates during 1980/81 in unlogged and previously logged drainage basins in Vaseux and Shingle Creeks. Annual loadings calculated from these studies were extrapolated to other unmonitored areas of the Okanagan Basin based on an inventory of logging for the Okanagan. Finally, the proportion of phosphorus loadings available for biological production was calculated for each lake sub-basin. |
