Sampling of Sampling of stream and drainage water is made automatically stream and drainage water is made automatically or by grab sampling weeklyor by grab sampling weekly while while groundwater is sampled groundwater is sampled 6 times/year.6 times/year.

Water samples are analysed for pH, conductivity, nutrients Water samples are analysed for pH, conductivity, nutrients (N & P), organic carbon and suspended material. In addition,(N & P), organic carbon and suspended material. In addition,water is analysed for major constituents (K, Na, etc.) in thewater is analysed for major constituents (K, Na, etc.) in theagricultural fields and in some of the catchments. Analyses agricultural fields and in some of the catchments. Analyses for pesticides are made in four catchments. for pesticides are made in four catchments.

Transport calculations are made by using daily concentrationTransport calculations are made by using daily concentrationvalues, derived by linear interpolation of the weekly measuredvalues, derived by linear interpolation of the weekly measuredvalues, and daily discharge rates. values, and daily discharge rates.
