Rainfall event monitoring. Drain is flowing very high, turbulent. This made sampling for nutrients difficult. DO was not tested, Ammonium was filtered, Smart 2 meter gave 0.84, Visocolor meter gave 0.04, a darker shade of yellow, not but really green. Very different readings.(looking into this) Phosphate reading was also filtered, Smart 2 meter used.
