Clarks Hill Lake Water Quality Study.

Abstract

A study of selected chemical, physical and biological parameters from Clarks Hill Lake, Georgia and South Carolina, was conducted from February to October 1981. Data are presented for 20 sampling sites located in Clarks Hill Lake, its tributaries and portions of the Savannah River downstream from the dam. Water and sediment chemical and physical parameters; macroinvertebrate, phytoplankton, zooplankton and periphyton community composition and density; bacteriological parameters; and pesticide and heavy metal concentrations from tissues of mollusc (Corbicula), white catfish and largemouth bass were analyzed.
