Calcium, magnesium and total dissolved solids data as well as modeled salinity and mass balance estimates for Lake Powell, 1952-2017
These data were compiled to quantify the role of Lake Powell in modulating salinity and reducing overall salt flux from the Upper Colorado River Basin downstream.  In addition, these data were used to infer summertime calcite precipitation in Lake Powell (the major proposed sink for salt within the system).  The Lake …
