The Besòs Delta end-members of Tubau et al. (2014).

Three river end-members retained by an EMMA of 56 river samples: one from wet periods (W1, dilute) and two from dry periods (D1, D2, concentrated), separated mainly by ammonium against calcium and magnesium.

The value of this dataset is less the concentrations than the standard-deviation scheme, which is the best-documented published example of the judgement that decides a MIX result. Note the very large factors on non-conservative species: that is the published device for carrying a species through so its composition is predicted without letting it drive the fit.

Notes

The 56 river and 51 groundwater samples behind the study are not published in the paper and so are not bundled. See data/SOURCES.md.
