Abstract

Abstract A study was undertaken to determine the effects of sample collection and preservation methods. Four different methods of sample collection and preservation are evaluated to determine effects on twenty-three different samples for eighteen dissolved inorganic species. Cleanliness and filtering apparatus had far more effect on the results than did the method of collection. The method recommended is for sample collection with minimum processing in the field, and expeditious return to the laboratory for filtering and acidification.
