Expected Results
Topic “Water contamination San Joaquin River”(Nitrate in Water)
Nitrate Levels are generally very low less than 10mg/L.
Nitrogen fertilizers are applied extensively in agriculture to increase crop production.
Land use also affects the Nitrogen Levels in water
Nitrogen will travel to groundwater as nitrate unless it is used by plants, released into the atmosphere, or washed out in overland runoff.
Nitrate are effectively everywhere agricultural lands, natural lands, urban areas with leaky sewer lines, septic leach fields, and wastewater percolation basins.
Location
Background of the Problem
Nitrate(NO3-) is developed when Nitrogen and oxygen are mixed
Water contamination is one of the valleys biggest problems
Nitrate in water is dangerous to humans specially babies
Data
Data on this project will be collected from:
“USGS.gov”
Water bound/division –Fresno city hall
Methodology
Researched What would affect the Nitrogen Levels in water
Gathered the data needed
Graphed Concentration of total Nitrate through time.
Graphed Gage height Vs. Time
Graphed waterfall Vs. Time
Graphed stream flow Vs. Time
Precipitation Vs. Time
Nitrogen Vs. Time
Streamflow Vs. Years
Flowrate
Gage Height
Summary
Nitrate was introduced as a problem to the community
Some facts about Nitrate and where it is located has been introduced
