📋 How to Navigate This Report

Overview Report: Start here for a summary of all water quality parameters with interactive maps and key statistics
Group Parameter Report: Compare multiple parameters side-by-side to identify correlations and patterns
Individual Parameter Reports: Explore specific parameters (Temperature, pH, Phosphate, Nitrate, etc.) with analysis and trends
Seasonal Analysis: Understand how water quality varies throughout the year and identify seasonal patterns
River & Rain Report: Explore the relationship between rainfall and river conditions

📏 Measurement Units Explained

The following units are used throughout these reports:

mg/L: milligrams per litre - used for dissolved oxygen and some nutrient measurements
µg/L: micrograms per litre - used for phosphate and other trace nutrient measurements (1 µg/L = 0.001 mg/L)
NTU: Nephelometric Turbidity Units - measures water clarity and suspended particles
°C: degrees Celsius - temperature measurements
pH: pH scale (0-14) - measures acidity/alkalinity (7 is neutral)
µS/cm: microsiemens per centimetre - electrical conductivity measurements
ppm: parts per million - used for total dissolved solids
