Pollen was measured in ambient air by several methods and in wet atmospheric deposition samples at three monitoring sites in the National Atmospheric Deposition Program (NADP) National Trends Network. A method for counting pollen on filters was developed and provided pollen counts for NADP atmospheric wet-deposition samples and high-volume ambient air samplers (HVAS) for comparison with co-located traditional microscopy and PollenSense sensor counting methods during the 2021 pollen season. Air and precipitation samples were collected by the NADP and analyzed by the Wisconsin State Laboratory of Hygiene, in Madison, Wisconsin and Aerobiology Research Laboratories (Canada). Daily data were obtained from online summaries...
The U.S. Geological Survey has operated the Precipitation Chemistry Quality Assurance (PCQA) Project to evaluate and document the data quality for the National Atmospheric Deposition Program (NADP) for 40 years. The PCQA is primarily focused on data quality for the NADP National Trends Network (NTN) and Mercury Deposition Network (MDN). The PCQA implements programs to evaluate the variability and bias of NADP data. The programs are described in several USGS reports: 1. See, R.B., Willoughby, T.C., and Brooks, M.H., 1990. Programs and analytical methods for the U.S. Geological Survey Acid Rain Quality Assurance Project: U.S. Geological Water-Resources Investigations Report 90-4029. 2. Latysh, N.E., and Wetherbee,...
Data files previously distributed by this data release have been removed because of their questionable quality. Continue reading below for more details or visit the National Atmospheric Deposition Program website at: http://nadp.slh.wisc.edu/data/NTN/. Why are these data no longer available? This data release originally provided access to National Atmospheric Deposition Program data that were used by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) to evaluate trends in precipitation bromide (Br-) concentrations across the contiguous United States. Results of the study were published as: Wetherbee, G.A., Lehmann, C.M.B., Kerschner, B.M., Ludtke, A.S., Green, L.A., and Rhodes, M.F., 2018, Trends in bromide wet deposition...

The USGS Precipitation Chemistry Quality Assurance Project (PCQA) operates QA programs to challenge and test the National Atmospheric Deposition Program (NADP) data-collection processes for both the National Trends Network (NTN) and Mercury Deposition Network (MDN). PCQA data are available in separate tables for each quality-assurance program: (1) NTN Interlaboratory-comparison, (2) MDN Interlaboratory-comparison program, (3) NTN Field-Audit program, (4) MDN System-Blank program, and (5) NTN Co-located Sampler program. Measured parameters include precipitation depth, pH, specific conductance, and ion concentrations for calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium, ammonium, chloride, bromide, nitrate, sulfate, phosphate,...

The National Atmospheric Deposition Program/National Trends Network (NADP/NTN) was initiated in 1978 by the Association of State Agricultural Experiment Stations to monitor long-term atmospheric chemistry and the effects pollutants have on aquatic and terrestrial systems. As of fall 2023, precipitation was being collected at approximately 260 NTN sites in the United States, including Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands, and additionally Bermuda and Canada. Beginning in 1996, the NADP/Mercury Deposition Network (MDN) has monitored mercury (Hg) in precipitation, and includes approximately 80 sites in the United States including Puerto Rico, plus Canada and Taiwan. The U.S. Geological Survey started the Precipitation...

The USGS Precipitation Chemistry Quality Assurance Project (PCQA) conducts research using the infrastructure of the National Atmospheric Deposition Program (NADP) National Trends Network (NTN). Beginning in December 2016, the PCQA installed and began operating NTN monitoring sites in the Denver-Boulder metropolitan area to study urban reactive nitrogen wet deposition. Precipitation depth data are collected at 15-minute intervals using electronically recording precipitation gages, and weekly composite samples are obtained using automated mechanical collectors. The precipitation depth data are summarized into daily, monthly, seasonal, and annual records. The samples are analyzed by the NADP Central Analytical Laboratory...

The purpose of this data release is to provide the original data, analysis methods, and nitrogen loading models in support of a study of the upper South Platte River annual total nitrogen loads attributed to atmospheric deposition of reactive nitrogen during 2017-2018. The data release includes water-quality and stream discharge data and associated predictive regression models used in the estimation of South Platte River nitrogen loads upstream from Weldona, Colorado and sub-basin runoff coefficients for the reach between Chatfield Dam and the South Platte River at Denver gage. The water-quality data were obtained from monthly unfiltered grab samples collected by the Denver Department of Public Health and Environment...
