Fig. 2. Relationship between storm-flow return period and mean dissolved phosphorus (DP), particulate phosphorus (PP), and total phosphorus P (TP) concentration for FD-36 during 1997 to 2006 (all regressions were significant at P > 0.05). For each form, concentration points assigned different letters were significantly different (P < 0.05) as determined by Tukey's studentized range test.
