Dean Tucker, National Park Service, Water Resources Division. Baseline Water Quality Inventory, Bighorn Canyon National Recreation Area. 1998

Baseline water quality data inventory and analysis reports for key park waterbodies. Park-based products for this inventory comprise water chemistry for key water bodies. Primary characteristics/parameters include: alkalinity, pH, conductivity, dissolved oxygen, rapid bioassessment baseline (EPA/state protocols, involving fish and macroinvertebrates), temperature, and flow. Secondary data characteristics/parameters, where important on a case-by-case basis, include: toxic elements, clarity/turbidity, nitrate/nitrogen, phosphate/phosphorus, chlorophyll, sulfates, and bacteria.
