Count HM Intolerant Taxa<br />
Figure 44. Cumulative distribution frequency (CDF) of HM Intolerant Taxa in reference (Phase<br />
I) and random (Phase II) populations.<br />
To illustrate the multiple levels of congruency among assessment parameters, mean differences<br />
for study parameters earlier tested for differences between the reference (Phase I) and random<br />
(Phase II) populations also remained significant in this sample subset (n = 52). For example, log<br />
transformed total nitrogen mg/L, chlorophyll-a, log transformed mean conductivity, and number<br />
of herbicides detected again showed significantly different (p < 0.05) between the two study<br />
populations (Figure 45).<br />
