Grant: Research Tools and Instruments - Category 1 (<$150,000)
Trent University
$74,627.00
Flow injection analysis of nutrient concentrations in storm runoff
FY 2007-08
Summary
Climate change projections for increases in the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events could have a marked impact on runoff water quality. The objective of this research program is to define the effects of storms and droughts on runoff patterns and chemistry at headwater, forested streams in the acid-sensitive Precambrian Shield region of Ontario.The instrument requested in this grant application will allow the analysis of chemical concentrations in runoff water, including total phosphorus, total nitrogen, nitrate and sulphate.
