High‐frequency water quality monitoring in an urban catchment: hydrochemical dynamics, primary production and implications for the Water Framework Directive

Abstract: Abstract:This paper describes the hydrochemistry of a lowland, urbanised river-system, The Cut in England, using in situ sub-daily sampling. The Cut receives effluent discharges from four major sewage treatment works serving around 190 000 people. These discharges consist largely of treated water, originally abstracted from the River Thames and returned via the water supply network, substantially increasing the natural flow. The hourly water quality data were supplemented by weekly manual sampling with laborat… Show more

“…Flow in the Kennet was estimated from gauging stations located approximately 2 km upstream. Flow in The Cut was estimated from a gauging station at Binfield (gauging 50 km 2 of the catchment), plus measured discharges from the sewage treatment works, plus an estimate of discharge from the lower part of the catchment based on that from the upper (Halliday et al, 2015).…”

“…1c) was sampled near its confluence with the River Thames at Bray (Wade et al, 2012;Halliday et al, 2015). The catchment geology is predominantly London Clay and Reading Beds (Palaeocene clays and sands), giving an impermeable catchment with a baseflow index of 0.46.…”

“…An optimal DBM model and associated parameters are identified using statistical measures, but a model is only accepted if it has a plausible physical explanation (Young, 1998(Young, , 2003Young and Beven, 1994;Young et al, 2004). With the increasing availability of high temporal resolution datasets for additional variables alongside stream discharge (Bieroza and Heathwaite, 2015;Bowes et al, 2015;Halliday et al, 2015;Outram et al, 2014), this technique has been used effectively for relating rainfall to hydrogen ion concentration in rivers , and rainfall to dissolved organic carbon .…”
