Description

The data set contains the phosphorus and nitrate concentrations as well as the water temperatures measured mostly weekly or fortnightly in the main tributaries of the Saidenbach Reservoir in the period from 1975 to 2017. From 1985, further water quality variables were included in the investigations and the measurements were usually done both before and after the pre-dams. In addition, the results of case studies on of additional water quality characteristics of sometimes only a few years' duration and not measured in all monitoring sites are included.
