Phase II information available in the report.

Data are provided for the following parameters:

• START DATE - Start date
• STOP DATE - Finish date
• CMS ID # - College of Marine Studies Identification Number
• # EVT - Number of Events per Month
• RAIN- g - Rain in Bucket (grams)
• RAIN-cm - Rainfall amount (cm)
• LAB pH - Laboratory measurement of pH (std units)
• Al - Aluminum Concentration (µg/l)
• As - Arsenic Concentration (µg/l)
• Cd - Cadmium Concentration (µg/l)
• Cr - Chromium Concentration (µg/l)
• Cu - Copper Concentration (µg/l)
• Fe - Iron Concentration (µg/l)
• Mn - Manganese Concentration (µg/l)
• Ni - Nickel Concentration (µg/l)
• Pb - Lead Concentration (µg/l)
• Se - Selenium Concentration (µg/l)

µg/l represents parts per billion

Values below the detection limit for each parameter, where applicable, are flagged in the database.

Data Notes:

• FB - Field Blank
• ISA - Insufficient Amount to Analyze
• NS - Not Sampled
• BDL - Below Detection Limit
• VWC -­ Volume-Weighted Mean Concentration of Metals in Precipitation
