Fig. 3. Concentrations of nitrate, ammonium, and total phosphorus in surface water (mean of reservoirs and creeks) in biosolids-amended and control watersheds from 1972 to 2002. A trendline was drawn when element concentrations were significantly correlated to time in either control or biosolids-amended watersheds.
