Appendix B. Box Plots of Water Quality Data

Transcription

1 CMP Water Quality Report June 2009 Appendix B. Box Plots of Water Quality Data Box and whisker plots are provided for all CMP water quality parameters with detected data. Box plots illustrate the distribution of results for core sites within a hydrologic unit. Any data below detection are represented at the detection limit for the analyte. Plots are organized by Hydrologic Unit and Analyte. The box plots summarize the distribution of points for each site. The ends of the box are the 25th and 75th quantiles. The difference between the quartiles is the interquartile range. The line across the middle of the box identifies the median sample value. Each box has lines, sometimes called whiskers, that extend from each end. The whiskers extend from the ends of the box to the outermost data point that falls within the distances computed as: upper quartile + 1.5*(interquartile range) lower quartile - 1.5*(interquartile range). Notes: Some extreme values are not displayed to allow comparison between sites and more clear illustration of broad differences in distributions in an untransformed scale for most parameters. A few parameters are displayed in log-scale (e.g., flow) to allow adequate visualization of distributions and comparisons between sites. Some plots have insufficient data to construct proper box plots. These plots may lack whiskers or other box components. They are included for completeness. There are no plots for Davenport Creek at Broad Street (310SLD) because this site was not successfully sampled due to lack of flows. There are no plots for ammonia, nitrate, TDS, and orthophosphate for Old Salinas River at Monterey Dunes Way (309OLD) because these parameters were not analyzed by the CMP due to overlap with CCAMP s Coastal Confluence monitoring program. Plots are provided on the accompanying DVD.
