Statement

Samples were obtained using a narrow necked HDPE bottle in a plastic covered bottle carrier and filtered through Whatman 0.45um GFC filters immediately on return to laboratory. Samples were analysed on day of collection or arrival at the laboratory using a Metrohm 702 Titrino autosampler with sample changer. Duplicate samples were analysed at the Institute for Freshwater Ecology (IFE) Windermere for a 12 months period and also at IFE East Stoke to compare results obtained by the laboratories. Alkalinity was also measured as part of the chemical harmonisation programme set up by the IFE at East Stoke. A zip file containing box-and-whisker plots for each determinand, showing the range of values (median, inter-quartile range, 1.5 * inter-quartile range, outliers) recorded at each site is available to enable prospective users of the data to understand data quality. The analysis was carried out by members of the analytical chemistry section at York University (from April 1994 until February 1997).
