Abstract

This report presents data on the quantity and chemical quality of precipitation collected by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) from the USGS precipitation-collection station at Catoctin Mountain, in Cunningham Falls State Park, near Thurmont, Maryland, from January 1982 through December 1991. Data on the quantity of precipitation are presented as daily, monthly, and annual totals of precipitation, in inches. Data on the chemical quality of precipitation are presented in tables as concentrations, in microequivalents/L. Data on the quantity and chemical quality of precipitation and statistical information about the data are summarized in tables. Data for annual precipitation-weighted mean concentrations of constituents in precipitation are summarized in tables. Annual precipitation-weighted mean concentrations of selected constituents are illustrated in graphs.
