Case Study Herbert Run
After the data was collected and compared I accepted my hypothesis but also rejected a part of my hypothesis. I reject that both streams have a high turbidity level. I believe this could be an error in our testing. Our sample was taken the same day as the testing and this is the recommended procedure for testing turbidity. That leads me to believe that we had an error in the way we tested for the turbidity. I accepted the prediction I had made as true. Herbert Run did have a better water quality than Commons stream. Herbert Run is connected to a larger water source, which is one of the possible reasons it has a better water quality. With water restoration and policies being put into place to reduce water pollution, the stream being connected

    The experiment indicates some systematic errors with some of the equipment we used. For example, if we used more accurate thermometers the densities of the water and overall temperature of the water would become more accurate to the true temperature of the water, and decrease the percent error of the data. In my experiment, human error was very relevant. A systematic error also occurred in some of the readings because the water was still cooling down as the experiment went on causing the temperature to change which changed the density of the water. When calculating the density of the water I used -0.0030 g/ °Ccm3 in my calculations instead of -0.00030 g/ °Ccm3.…

    Government agencies carefully monitor water quality and its effect on wetlands (Reference: Environment Protection Agency Wetland Report EPA 832-R-93-005). Of particular concern is the concentration of nitrogen in water draining from fertilized lands. Too much nitrogen can kill fish and wildlife. Twenty-eight samples of water were taken at random from a lake. The nitrogen concentration (milligrams of nitrogen per liter of water) was determined for each sample. The variable in this information is nitrogen concentration (mg nitrogen/l water).…
