Module 3 Water Quality Index

Stream Name: NELSON CREEK | Survey Date: August 14th, 2022
Chemical Test Result Q-value Weighting Index Value
Temperature Change: Temperature Not enough data 92.00 X 0.10 = 9.2
Oxygen Saturation: 85.00 92.00 x 0.17 = 15.64
pH (units): 6.20 65.00 x 0.11 = 7.15
Turbidity (cm): 0.00 70.00 x 0.08 = 5.6
