Title Hydrology and water quality of an urban stream reach in the Great Basin-Little Cottonwood Creek near Salt Lake City, Utah, water years 1999-2000
Subject Stream ecology -- Utah; Water quality
Description The hydrology and water quality of an urbanized reach of Little Cottonwood Creek near Salt Lake City, Utah, were examined as part of the Great Salt Lake Basins study, part of the U.S. Geological Survey National Water-Quality Assessment program. Physical and chemical properties of the stream were referenced to established aquatic-life criteria as available. Two fixed sampling sites were established on Little Cottonwood Creek with the purpose of determining the influence of urbanization on the water quality of the stream. The fixed-site assessment is a component of the National Water- Quality Assessment surface-water study design used to assess the spatial and temporal distribution of selected water-quality constituents.
