Summary
Abstract:
Water quality monitoring is conducted at 26 National Estuarine Research Reserves (NERR) at four locations within or adjacent to the reserve. The following parameters are collected at least every 30 minutes: water temperature, specific conductivity, salinity, percent saturation, dissolved oxygen concentration, water depth, pH and turbidity. All water quality data loggers will be deployed from a known depth from the bottom at each site.
Purpose:
Research objectives The principal objective of this study is to record long-term water quality data for Delaware Bay in order to observe any physical changes or trends in water quality over time. The four sites chosen for monitoring will assist in understanding the impacts of both urban and agricultural impacts on the respective watersheds. Scotton Landing, Lebanon Landing, and Division Street are ... located within the St. Jones River watershed, while the Blackbird Landing component is located in the Blackbird Creek watershed. The St. Jones River is impacted by urbanization upstream and extensive agricultural activity throughout the basin. The Blackbird Creek is one of the least impacted riverine systems in Delaware, although current development pressures that exist are increasing. Measurements are taken every 30 minutes over two week collecting periods at the Scotton Landing (SL), Blackbird Landing (BL), Lebanon Landing (LL), and Division Street (DS) sites.
Associated researchers and projects An extensive stormwater sampling and hydrodynamic modeling project is underway in the upper reaches of the St. Jones River Basin. This project includes flow weighted stormwater sampling to quantify pollutant loads from each of the major land uses found in the Basin. An additional stormwater sampling program is underway to analyze the impact of agricultural BMP's at sites in the Blackbird Creek Watershed, St. Jones River Watershed. A joint effort underway through NOAA's Center for Coastal Ecosystem Health and the DNERR characterization studies will initiate detailed monthly water quality sampling at three sites in each river over a two year period and will quantify the phytoplankton community with collections from the same sites. This project was scheduled to be initiated in February 1995.(See Section I.1. for research contacts.) II. Physical Structure Descriptors Other remarks/notes a) D.O probe warm up times were discussed at the 2002 NERR Technician Training Session. It was agreed that the entire system would employ a 60 second warm up time for the DO sensor. Sonde start times are set 1 minute prior to the desired reading time to compensate for the 60 second warm up period. Warm up times were changed as follows: Scotton Landing (deployment on February 21, 2002), Lebanon Landing (deployment on February 01, 2002), Division Street (deployment on January 31, 2002), Blackbird Landing (deployment on February 06, 2002). Autosleep functions were also checked on these dates and turned on wherever necessary. b) A new model 6136 turbidity probe was introduced in 2002 by YSI. This new probe replaced the old 6026 model. The dates of change for each site were as follows: Scotton Landing (deployment on March 12, 2002), Lebanon Landing (deployment on March 12, 2002), Division Street (deployment on April 03, 2002), Blackbird Landing (deployment on March 06, 2002). Model 6026 probes acted as stand ins due to 6136 calibration difficulties/probe failure at the following sites at these date time ranges: c) Calibration procedures changed with the introduction of the new turbidity probe model. The turbidity probe are now 3 inches from calibration fluid cup bottom. The calibration fluid cup always sits directly on a black surface (prior procedure used cup suspended over black surface). d) YSI introduced a new sonde guard with the new turbidity probes. The new guard measures 8 ½" and replaced the old 6 ½" guard. Please note the 2" difference between the new and old guards in regards to depth data when comparing current data with data prior to dates in Section 14, part b). Guard change dates are synonymous with turbidity probe model change dates listed in section 14, part b) of this document. e) Hurricane Isabel hit Delaware during the period of September 18-19, 2003. f) The DNERR commenced testing of the flat sensor pH probe at the Scotton Landing site on October 2, 2003. The purpose of this probe alteration is to test the effectiveness of the flat sensor probe when used in conjunction with a series 6600 non-EDS data sonde. g) On November 25, 2003 the DNERR began using YSI 6073G brand turbidity standard for turbidity probe calibration and abandoned the previously used APS Analytical Standards brand.

SPATIAL DATA ORGANIZATION INFORMATION:
Indirect Spatial Reference: Site location and character The Delaware National Estuarine Research Reserve is comprised of two component sites, the St. Jones River and Blackbird Creek components. Both components are located along the Delaware Bay Coast. The St. Jones River Component is located in central Kent County Delaware, east of the state capital city, Dover. The Blackbird Creek component is located in the unincorporated area of Southern New Castle County. There are four sampling sites, three located in the St. Jones component and one in the Blackbird Creek component. 1) Scotton Landing – is located in the Lower St. Jones River at the Scotton Landing Public Fishing Pier, slightly upstream of Delaware Route 113. The river is 22.3 km long (mainstream linear dimension), has an average depth of 4m MHW and the width is 50 m. At the sampling site, the depth is 3.2 m MHW and the width is 40 m. The sediment is clayey silt with no bottom vegetation. The watershed-draining site is 19778 ha. The site is influenced by freshwater runoff from the relatively urbanized area upstream.

ATTRIBUTE ACCURACY REPORT: Anomalous/Suspect Data A. Scotton Landing January 1, 2003 through March 31, 2003 a) Turbidity (NTU) value on January 01, 2002 06:00:00 out of range, 1406, possible obstruction, data retained. b) Turbidity (NTU) value on January 01, 2002 17:00:00 out of range, 1077, possible obstruction, data retained. c) Turbidity (NTU) value on January 01, 2002 23:00:00 out of range, ... 1268, possible obstruction, data retained. d) Turbidity (NTU) value on January 02, 2002 19:30:00 out of range, 1353, possible obstruction, data retained. e) Turbidity (NTU) value on January 02, 2002 23:00:00 out of range, 1447, possible obstruction, data retained. f) Turbidity (NTU) value on January 03, 2002 20:00:00 out of range, 1310, possible obstruction, data retained. g) Turbidity (NTU) value on January 04, 2002 20:30:00 out of range, 1311, possible obstruction, data retained. h) Turbidity (NTU) value on January 05, 2002 12:00:00 out of range, 1431, possible obstruction, data retained. i) Turbidity (NTU) value on January 05, 2002 23:00:00 out of range, 1402, possible obstruction, data retained. j) Turbidity (NTU) value on January 07, 2002 14:30:00 out of range, 1375, possible obstruction, data retained. k) Turbidity (NTU) value on January 08, 2002 04:00:00 out of range, 1089, possible obstruction, data retained. l) Turbidity (NTU) value on January 08, 2002 05:30:00 out of range, 1085, possible obstruction, data retained. m) DO trend from January 08, 2003 16:00:00 through January 23, 2002 12:00:00 is slightly lower than previous deployment's trend. The data sonde was changed between these two deployments, which likely accounts for the variation in readings. n) Turbidity (NTU) value on January 09, 2002 02:30:00 out of range, 1586, possible obstruction, data retained. o) Turbidity (NTU) value on January 09, 2002 15:00:00 out of range, 1589, possible obstruction, data retained. p) Turbidity (NTU) value on January 14, 2002 00:30:00 out of range, 1439, possible obstruction, data retained. q) Turbidity (NTU) value on January 14, 2002 01:00:00 out of range, 1546, possible obstruction, data retained. r) Turbidity (NTU) value on January 14, 2002 07:00:00 out of range, 1571, possible obstruction, data retained. s) Turbidity (NTU) value on January 14, 2002 11:00:00 out of range, 1398, possible obstruction, data retained. t) Turbidity (NTU) value on January 14, 2002 18:00:00 out of range, 1167, possible obstruction, data retained. u) Turbidity (NTU) value on January 15, 2002 09:00:00 out of range, 1580, possible obstruction, data retained. v) Turbidity (NTU) value on January 15, 2002 11:00:00 out of range, 1579, possible obstruction, data retained. w) Turbidity (NTU) value on January 15, 2002 12:30:00 out of range, 1280, possible obstruction, data retained. x) Turbidity (NTU) value on January 16, 2002 10:00:00 out of range, 1574, possible obstruction, data retained. y) Turbidity (NTU) value on January 17, 2002 13:00:00 out of range, 1554, possible obstruction, data retained. z) Turbidity (NTU) value on January 18, 2002 09:00:00 out of range, 1573, possible obstruction, data retained. aa) Turbidity (NTU) value on January 18, 2002 18:00:00 out of range, 1291, possible obstruction, data retained. bb) Turbidity (NTU) value on January 18, 2002 20:30:00 out of range, 1541, possible obstruction, data retained. cc) Turbidity (NTU) value on January 20, 2002 13:00:00 out of range, 1296, possible obstruction, data retained. dd) Turbidity (NTU) value on January 21, 2002 11:30:00 out of range, 1368, possible obstruction, data retained. ee) No data are available between January 23, 2003 12:30:00 through March 13, 2003 13:30:00. Severe snowstorms, ice sheets, and freezing water temperatures made deployment impossible during this time period. April 1, 2003 through June 30, 2003 a) Turbidity (NTU) value on May 03, 2003 17:30:00 out of range, 1126, possible obstruction, data retained. July 1, 2003 through September 30, 2003 a) Turbidity (NTU) value on July 04, 2003 22:30:00 out of range, 1465, possible obstruction, data retained. b) No data are available on July 24, 2003 07:30:00 since sonde was out of water for D.O. membrane wipe with methanol and brief sonde external cleaning. c) Turbidity (NTU) values on September 18, 2003 from 14:30:00 through 17:00:00 are out of range: 1067, 1249, 1240, 1169, 1004, possible obstruction, data retained. High values also correspond with Hurricane Isabel event. October 1, 2003 through December 31, 2003 a) Slight rise in pH range after deployment on October 02, 2003 attributed to usage of new pH sensor. The DNERR began testing the efficacy of the flat-probe pH sensor, designed for EDS sondes, on the non-EDS 6600 series units on this date. b) Depth (m) values between November 13, 2002 18:30:00 through 23:00:00 and November 14, 2003 08:00:00 through 09:30:00 are small negative values ranging from 0.0 to -0.09. These negative values make up a portion of time exhibiting depressed water depth values. The period occurred from November 13, 2003 12:00 through November 15, 2003 11:00:00. Consistent winds blowing from the west inhibited water influx from the bay. Precipitation coupled with a lack of bay water influx accounts for the depressed salinity readings at the time. These depressed salinity values do not support the sonde coming out of the water during this time period; all data retained. B. Blackbird Landing January 1, 2003 through March 31, 2003 a) No data are available between January 01, 2003 00:00:00 through March 12, 2003 16:00:00. Severe snowstorms, ice sheets, and freezing water temperatures made deployment impossible during this time period. April 1, 2003 through June 30, 2003 a) Turbidity data from April 27, 2003 00:00:00 through April 30, 2003 23:30:00 was deleted due to unreliably high values caused by bio fouling. A sharp consistent rise in values commenced on the 27th and proceeded to increase, thus fouling was likely the cause. b) Turbidity data from May 01, 2003 00:00:00 through 06:00:00 was deleted due to unreliably high values caused by bio fouling. A sharp consistent rise in values commenced on April 27th and proceeded to increase, thus fouling was identified as the cause. c) A sonde change took place during the calibration and maintenance period on May 23, 2003 due to eyelet breakage for the primary upper sonde hanging bracket. As a result of the sonde change, small differences in parameters exist before and after the deployment. This specifically explains a slight drop in turbidity value range between the readings pre- and post- maintenance/calibration. d) Turbidity (NTU) value on June 13, 2003 13:00:00 out of range, 1346, possible obstruction, data retained. e) Turbidity (NTU) values on June 27, 2003 15:00:00 through 16:30:00 are out of range: 2189, 2187, and 2187. Evidence of possible obstruction, data retained. July 1, 2003 through September 30, 2003 a) Slightly higher pH data set values follow the deployment on July 02, 2003 compared to pre-retrieval data set values on the same day. This small difference is attributed to the change of pH probes during maintenance/calibration on that day. b) Turbidity (NTU) value on July 05, 2003 12:00:00 out of range, 2001, possible obstruction, data retained. c) No data are available on July 09, 2003 15:30:00 due to sonde being out of the water for D.O. membrane wipe with methanol and general sonde cleaning. d) No data are available from July 18, 2003 15:00:00 through August 05, 2003 06:00:00 due to equipment failure. e) Turbidity (NTU) value on August 12, 2003 07:00:00 out of range, 1978, possible obstruction, data retained. f) Turbidity (NTU) value on August 13, 2003 06:30:00 out of range, 1989, possible obstruction, data retained. g) Turbidity (NTU) value on August 13, 2003 19:30:00 out of range, 1749, possible obstruction, data retained. h) Turbidity (NTU) value on August 14, 2003 21:30:00 out of range, 2024, possible obstruction, data retained. i) Turbidity (NTU) value on August 15, 2003 04:00:00 out of range, 1325, possible obstruction, data retained. j) Turbidity (NTU) value on August 20, 2003 13:00:00 out of range, 1981, possible obstruction, data retained. k) Turbidity (NTU) value on September 02, 2003 11:00:00 out of range, 1195, possible obstruction, data retained. l) Depth and salinity values from September 18, 2003 through September 19, 2003 are higher than the average trend due to activity from Hurrican Isabel. October 1, 2003 through December 31, 2003 a) Turbidity (NTU) value on October 01, 2003 12:00:00 out of range, 1743, possible obstruction, data retained. b) Turbidity (NTU) value on October 01, 2003 21:00:00 out of range, 1874, possible obstruction, data retained. c) Turbidity (NTU) value on November 11, 2003 23:30:00 out of range, 1693, possible obstruction, data retained. d) Turbidity (NTU) value on November 12, 2003 03:00:00 out of range, 1704, possible obstruction, data retained. e) Turbidity (NTU) value on November 12, 2003 04:00:00 out of range, 1699, possible obstruction, data retained. f) Turbidity (NTU) value on November 13, 2003 02:00:00 out of range, 1717, possible obstruction, data retained. g) Turbidity (NTU) value on November 13, 2003 23:00:00 out of range, 1358, possible obstruction, data retained. h) Depth trend is abnormally low during the period from November 13, 2003 03:00:00 through November 15, 2003 16:30:00. Depth readings were likely affected by barometric pressure changes and westerly wind influence at the time from a front moving through the area as evidenced by DNERR meteorological data; data retained. C. Lebanon Landing January 1, 2003 through March 31, 2003 a) No data are available between January 23, 2003 12:30:00 through March 13, 2003 14:00:00. Severe snowstorms, ice sheets, and freezing water temperatures made deployment impossible during this time period. April 1, 2003 through June 30, 2003 a) Depression of maximum salinity values during high tides from April 10, 2003 to April 17, 2003 likely due to runoff influence from storms. b) All data from May 18, 2003 13:00:00 through May 21, 2003 07:30:00 was removed. Distinct depth shift indicated sonde was disturbed (pulled up) and not allowed to settle to the bottom after disturbance. July 1, 2003 through September 30, 2003 a) Slightly higher pH values follow the deployment on September 03, 2003 compared to pre-retrieval values on the same day. This small difference is likely attributed to the change of pH probes during maintenance/calibration on that day. b) Elevated depth readings from September 18, 2003 11:00:00 through September 19, 2003 19:00:00 correspond to precipitation event associated w/ hurricane Isabel. c) Elevated salinity readings from September 18, 2003 16:00:00 through September 19, 2003 12:30:00 correspond to event associated w/ hurricane Isabel. d) Elevated turbidity readings from September 18, 2003 17:00:00 through 23:00:00 correspond to event associated w/ hurricane Isabel. October 1, 2003 through December 31, 2003 a) Depth (m) values between November 13, 2003 12:30:00 through November 15th, 2003 13:00:00 exhibit depressed water depth values. Consistent winds blowing from the west inhibited water influx from the bay. Precipitation coupled with a lack of bay water influx accounts for the depressed salinity readings at the time. These depressed salinity values do not support the sonde coming out of the water during this time period; all data retained. b) Slightly lower pH values follow the deployment on December 15, 2003 compared to pre-retrieval values during the same day. This small difference is likely attributed to the change of sondes between retrieval and deployment. D. Division Street January 1, 2003 through March 31, 2003 a) No data are available between January 23, 2003 10:00:00 through March 13, 2003 14:30:00. Severe snowstorms, ice sheets, and freezing water temperatures made deployment impossible during this time period. b) Turbidity (NTU) value on March 20, 2002 18:30:00 out of range, 1122, possible obstruction, data retained. April 1, 2003 through June 30, 2003 a) Turbidity (NTU) value on April 13, 2003 02:00:00 out of range, 1983, possible obstruction, data retained. b) Turbidity (NTU) value on April 16, 2003 22:30:00 out of range, 1187, possible obstruction, data retained. c) Turbidity (NTU) value on May 01, 2003 13:00:00 is a negative value, -0005. Data point should be read as zero and attributed to calibration error. d) Turbidity (NTU) value on May 04, 2003 01:00:00 out of range, 1631, possible obstruction, data retained. e) Turbidity (NTU) value on May 04, 2003 02:30:00 out of range, 1140, possible obstruction, data retained. f) Turbidity (NTU) value on May 05, 2003 13:00:00 out of range, 1180, possible obstruction, data retained. g) Elevated depth (m) readings from June 22, 2003 00:00:00 through June 23, 2003 00:00:00 due to heavy rain events and storm runoff. July 1, 2003 through September 30, 2003 a) No data are available on July 08, 2003 13:00:00 since sonde was out of water for D.O. membrane wipe with methanol and brief external sonde cleaning. b) Drop in DO should be considered suspect on July 26, 2003 at 02:00:00 for no known reason, possibly due to fish in vicinity of probe. c) Turbidity (NTU) value on August 17, 2003 20:00:00 out of range, 2892, possible obstruction, data retained. d) Turbidity (NTU) value on September 03, 2003 02:00:00 out of range, 1931, possible obstruction, data retained. e) Turbidity (NTU) value on September 09, 2003 00:00:00 out of range, 2315, possible obstruction, data retained. f) Turbidity (NTU) value on September 09, 2003 20:00:00 out of range, 2274, possible obstruction, data retained. g) Turbidity (NTU) value on September 11, 2003 19:00:00 out of range, 2621, possible obstruction, data retained. h) Turbidity (NTU) value on September 11, 2003 22:30:00 out of range, 2599, possible obstruction, data retained. i) Turbidity (NTU) value on September 12, 2003 00:00:00 out of range, 2630, possible obstruction, data retained. j) Elevated depth readings from September 18, 2003 12:00:00 through September 19, 2003 13:00:00 correspond to precipitation event associated w/ hurricane Isabel. October 1, 2003 through December 31, 2003 a) The depth (m) value on October 14, 2003 21:00:00 is zero. Based on other parameters it cannot be concluded that the sonde was out of water. The sonde may have been affected by changes in barometric pressure; all data retained. b) Depth (m) values between October 21, 2003 13:00:00 through 20:30:00 are zero or small negative values ranging from 0 to -0.1. Based on other parameters it cannot be concluded that the sonde was out of water. The sonde may have been affected by changes in barometric pressure; all data retained. c) The depth (m) value on October 22, 2003 03:30:00 is zero. Based on other parameters it cannot be concluded that the sonde was out of water. The sonde may have been affected by changes in barometric pressure; all data retained. d) Depth (m) values between October 22, 2003 12:30:00 through 14:30:00 are zero or small negative values ranging from 0 to -0.1. Based on other parameter values it cannot be concluded that the sonde was out of water. The sonde may have been affected by changes in barometric pressure; all data retained. e)DO percent saturation and concentration values (133.5% & 14.6 mg/l) on November 13, 2003 at 07:30:00 are higher than the trend for this time period and represent single spikes in among a uniform value range. Data considered suspect, but retained in the data set. f) Slightly higher pH values ranges follow the deployment on December 15, 2003 compared to pre-retrieval values during the same day. This small difference is likely attributed to the change of sondes between retrieval and deployment. Post deployment information a) Retrieval Readings: this section contains the field readings upon retrieval of the sonde. Key to abbreviations: * Cloud Cover: (S=sunny, PC=partly cloudy, OC= overcast, LR=light rain, HR=heavy rain, TS=thunderstorm) * Wave Height: (C=calm, SM=smooth, M=moderate, R=rough) * Wind Speed: Beaufort Wind Strength Scale * N/A: reading for parameter is not available-explanations usually found on field data sheets, but are not all included in this document for length reasons.

Periods were later removed for data dissemination purposes and left blank. Periods were later removed for data dissemination purposes and left blank. Data are missing due to equipment failure where no probes were deployed, maintenance/calibration of equipment, elimination of obvious outliers, or elimination of data due to calibration (both pre and post) problems. For more details on deleted data, see the Anomalous Data Section (11.). To find out more details about missing data, contact the Research Coordinator at the site submitting the data. LINEAGE/PROCESS STEP: PROCESS DESCRIPTION: Additional Description: Entry verification The Centralized Data Management Office re-processed all SWMP water data collected from 1995-2002 to include an identifying station code (three letter reserve code, two letter sampling site code and data type code), a four digit year date stamp (mm/dd/yyyy) and a corrected time column (hh:mm). With the new format, the use of periods to denote deleted or missing data has been abandoned. Hence, all periods contained in the SWMP water data collected prior 2003 were removed and left blank. The data is directly downloaded in a spreadsheet format from the YSI 6600 datalogger to a PC. Edited files are created by removing the headers, footers, and spaces on a PC. Missing data from YSI 6600 maintenance (downtime) is inserted into the spreadsheet and are denoted by periods (.). Periods were later removed for data dissemination purposes and left blank. Data and graphs are visually inspected to find possible anomalies. Edited and raw files are currently stored on 3.5-inch diskettes. [Edited and raw data will be archived and stored on IBM 41T workstation]. Data files were QA/QC'd using Excel 5.0 CDMO macros. The CDMO cdmomac3.xls macro will allow the user to automatically format column widths to the correct number of decimal places based on YSI sensor specifications. It also allows the user to QA/QC each data logger generated file for missing data points, fill all cells that do not contain data with periods, and find all data points that fall outside the range of what the data logger is designed to measure (outliers). The CDMO import.xls macro will allow PC users with 30-minute data to automatically create a monthly Excel file from a two-week deployment and insert periods for missing data. Periods were later removed for data dissemination purposes and left blank. In addition, in November 1999 a graphing capability was added to this macro allowing users to produce single parameter and missing data point graphs on a monthly basis. Edited files are merged to contain one full month of data. Edited and merged monthly files are also transferred to NERRS Centralized Data Management Office. Michael Mensinger is responsible for the editing and archiving of these data. PROCESS DATE: 20060209
