Time series analysis of water chemistry in Canada and in Norway / by E. Damsleth, D.C.L. Lam, A.H. El-Shaarawi and R.F. Wright.: En13-5/87-109E-PDF

"This report summarizes the results of applying time series methods for developing stochastic models for various chemical data which were collected from Turkey Lakes Watershed in Ontario, Canada and the experimental watersheds used in the RAW (Reversing Acidification in Norway) project in Norway. Univariate and transfer function models were fitted to the pH, S04-- and M2+ data from Turkey Lakes Stations 1 and 2 and the Norwegian stations EGIL, KIM and ROLF. In addition, HCO3- data from the two Turkey Lake stations were also modelled. The results show that the univariate models explain about 80% of the total variability. The runoff contributes significantly as an explanatory variable for all the Turkey Lakes time series data and only for the pH at station KIM and SO4- and M2+ at station EGIL"--Abstract.
