Comparison of Two Methods for Estimating Discharge and Nutrient Loads from Tidally Affected Reaches of the Myakka and Peace Rivers, West-Central Florida
- Date Issued:
- 1997
- Summary:
- The purpose of this report is to describe and compare two methods (the tidal-estimation and basin-ratio methods) that were used for estimating discharge and nutrient loads for the tidal reaches of the Myakka and Peace River Basins. Data were collected during four separate 30-day periods during 1994 and 1995; two of the periods represented low-flow conditions and two represented high-flow conditions. Both methods were used to compute discharge and nutrient loads for the data-collection periods, and the results were then compared.
