Annotated Report and Data Inventory For The Mississippi and Minnesota Rivers, Minneapolis-St.Paul Metropolitan Area

This inventory of reports and data concerning the Mississippi and Minnesota Rivers in the Twin Cities metropolitan area was compiled from November 1981 through January 1982 for a planned cooperative river-quality assessment by the U.S. Geological Survey and the Metropolitan Waste Control Commission. There are 260 annotated citations: 176 citations of reports; 8 citations of computer models that have been used to model either or both rivers; and 76 citations of data in reports, in field notes, lab sheets, or handwritten tabulations, and in computer data bases. Citations of all the reports and data that might conceivably be useful in understanding and interpreting the biological and chemical quality of the Mississippi and Minnesota Rivers in the past, present, or future were included. The accuracy of the citations was not verified, and secondary sources, such as other annotated bibliographies, were used in compiling this inventory.
