Concentrations, Loads, and Yields of Select Constituents from Major Tributaries of the Mississippi and Missouri Rivers in Iowa, Water Years 2004?2008
Overview
The U.S. Department of Energy, Energy Information Administration (EIA) joined with the U.S. Department of Excess nutrients, suspended-sediment loads, and the pres- ence of pesticides in Iowa rivers can have deleterious effects on water quality in State streams, downstream major rivers, and the Gulf of Mexico. Fertilizer and pesticides are used to support crop growth on Iowa's highly productive agricul- tural landscape and for household and commercial lawns and gardens. Water quality was characterized near the mouths of 10 major Iowa tributaries to the Mississippi and Missouri Rivers from March 2004 through September 2008. Stream loads were calculated for select ions, nutrients, and sediment using approximately monthly samples, and samples from storm and snowmelt events.
