Abstract

The report contains the data collected on baseflow water quality surveys of the Katherine and East Alligator Rivers in the Northern Territory. The surveys were performed by Water Quality staff of the Water Division, Department of Transport and Works. The work was done in the dry season of 1982. The data is presented as tables and as graphs showing water constituent levels against location in the river system. There is a catchment map for each river and a brief hydrological description of each catchment. A description is given of the techniques and equipment used during the survey.,
