Variations of Estimated Pollutant Loading from Rural Streams with Sampling Intervals

Sampling schemes are intended for use in situations where stream-flow data are collected regularly, but concentration data are collected during only a limited number of time periods. Estimating water pollutant loading considering sampling intervals is presented, and for illustrative purposes the criterion is applied to the sampling station HS#3 of the Balan-reservoir watershed which is located at the southwest of Suwon. The stratification is employed uniformly for all sampling strategies in that the strata boundaries are defined using the actual distribution of flow values and the selected nonexceedence probabilities to minimize inaccuracy. Ratio estimator for SS, T-N, and T-P were used in order to calculate the water pollutant loading. A sampling scheme incorporating stratified sampling with real-time of the sampling characteristics is found to give the appropriate estimate of the mass load.
