Title

Water quality data from the Ribble and Wyre catchments 2008-2010

Abstract

Water quality data from 26 Ribble and Wyre river basin sites in north west England. Samples were analysed for major solutes, pH, Gran alkalinity, trace metals, mercury and chlorophyll. Full details about this dataset can be found at https://doi.org/10.5285/b4b44b04-bfd0-40ca-b60a-681018eb78ce
