I have had another look at the dissolved oxygen DO results for 27/6 as we were concerned about the very high readings. I went back to Augusta Street bridge the next day and took another reading which was considerably lower. Unfortunately I didn’t retest the other sites. I now believe that the meter was incorrectly calibrated so I think we should include a note to that effect on the data sheets. On re-reading the calibration data I didn’t allow enough time for the DO reading to stabilise.
I will allow more time for future calibrations. Jan Jones
