Description: These maps from the U. S. Geological Survey Water Resources Investigation Report number 97-4011, An Optimized Network for Phosphorus Load Monitoring for Lake Okeechobee, show the spatial distribution of average phosphorus concentration in milligrams per liter, annual mean discharge in cubic feet per second, phosphorus loads in metric tons per year, and standard error in load estimates based on one sample, in metric tons per year, for Lake Okeechobee averaged over the period 1982 to 1991. The maps also show the relationship between inflow and outflow.
