Statistical Analysis of Surface Water Quality Specific Conductance Data
- Florida Dept of Environmental Protection, Bureau of Labs, Biology Section. The
Triennial Review Committee of Florida Department of Environmental Protection
(FDEP) requested the Biology Section to evaluate scientific evidence to support
or reject the need to revise the Surface Water Quality Standard for Specific
Conductance. This document was written in response to that request. (PDF file

Fla. Dept. Environmental Protection, Bureau of Laboratories. 1995.
Protocols for determining Major-seawater-ion toxicity in membrane-technology water-treatment concentrate. 26 pp. [unpublished report] [This document contains the results of a study to determine methods for identifying toxicity to marine animals resulting from an 'imbalance' of the major seawater ions. The report includes the rationale for the method, the results of the study, and the methods allowing one to determine whether toxicity in a sample results solely from major seawater ion imbalance, solely from 'other' toxics, or from a combination of the two causes.
The
zip file contains
2 files; the RO report in .pdf, the ion calculation spreadsheet in Excel format.
RO SOPs can be found in the list of Internal Biology SOPs. Search by Category and choose Toxicity-RO Methods.
