Five days ago we received 111 ml of rain over night, and there is now evidence of recent flooding where the creek depth would have been about 2m higher. The poor results for Amnonium and turbidity would be due to the recent heavy rains. Our samples required filtering, heating and Amnonium also needed diluting.
