The Influence of Air Temperature on Water Temperature and the Concentration of Dissolved Oxygen in Newfoundland Rivers
Open accessAbstract
In this paper regression models are developed for predicting water temperature and the concentration of dissolved oxygen in rivers monitored by the Newfoundland and Labrador Real-Time Water Quality Monitoring (RTWQM) network. The developed models can be used to predict mean, maximum and minimum water temperatures and dissolved oxygen at the monthly, weekly and daily time scales. A nonlinear logistic model is found to best represent the S-shaped relationship between water temperature at the real-time stations and air temperature collected from meteorological stations 5-50 kilometers away. There is a clear tendency for monthly and weekly models to be more accurate for prediction than the daily models. Both linear and nonlinear exponential decay models were found to best represent the relationship between water temperature and dissolved oxygen at the real-time stations. A novel graphical method of linking air temperature to water temperature and dissolved oxygen has been developed and may prove to be a valuable simple tool in the assessment of the health of the rivers in the real-time network.

In the citing paper
“However, the degree to which temperature impacts DO concentrations can vary as temperature is one of many factors that affect DO solubility, thereby making direct causality difficult (Harvey et al., 2011; Matthews and Berg, 1997).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
