This study examines the chemical water quality of streams in the Redwood Creek basin, along with effects of logging. Water quality is generally good, with some seasonal variation in components. Some differences are noted between forested areas and logged watersheds. Figures and tables show water quality data (major ions, alkalinity, specific conductance, and more), sampling station data (stream gradient, land use, regolith), and field measurement data from synoptic studies according to calendar quarter and watershed type, with comparisons.
