Module 3 Water Quality Index

Stream Name: MOSSOM CREEK | Survey Date: February 28th, 2021
Chemical Test Result Q-value Weighting Index Value
Temperature Change: Temperature Not enough data 98.00 X 0.10 = 9.8
Oxygen Saturation: 102.80 100.00 x 0.17 = 17
pH (units): 7.88 88.00 x 0.11 = 9.68
Turbidity - JTU: 1.40 99.00 x 0.08 = 7.92
Total = Water Quality Index (Compare this value to the Water Quality Chart below)
