Serving Waynesboro, Augusta County & the Shenandoah Valley

Briefing paper summarizing 2008 status of mercury source-tracing and mechanistic studies on the South River. Focused on two sites (Plant Reach and Basic Park), it reports hyporheic sampling in gravel bars, vertical methylmercury profiles, short-term desorption experiments, and a longitudinal Hg(II) survey. Results indicate higher dissolved Hg in hyporheic waters and methylmercury peaks near the upper hyporheic zone.
