Chemical and isotopic data for a study of seasonality of nitrate sources and isotopic composition in the Upper Illinois River, 2004-2008
November 21, 2019
This data release contains chemical and isotopic data used in an investigation of nitrate sources and transport in the Upper Illinois River basin. Samples (total = 445) include river water from the Upper Illinois River and its major tributaries plus urban wastewater and agricultural groundwater. Data include concentrations of nitrate, chloride, and sulfate; isotope ratios of N and O in nitrate; and isotope ratios of H and O in water.

Seasonality of nitrate sources and isotopic composition in the Upper Illinois River
To improve understanding of spatial, seasonal, and inter-annual variations in nitrate sources and in-stream processes in the Illinois River system, nitrate concentrations and isotopic compositions were measured in 445 water samples collected over a four-year period (2004–2008) from the Upper Illinois River Basin (UIRB). Samples included surface water in the river and major tributaries, effluent sa
