Why wasn't there any nitrates in the first 4 streams tested and then 1 ppm of nitrates in the 5th stream?

Maybe it has a different make up of the watershed? This may mean that it has a different amount of limestone vs. sandstone. If it has more limestone than would it provide more nutrients in turn making more algae grow? Would this produce more nitrate?[Reply]
