This data collection entails monitoring inlets and outlets of Dillon Reservoir 8 times a year over a decade, with 4 events each in high-flow (May-August) and low-flow (September-April) seasons. Samples are tested for dissolved and total metals, including 27 trace elements like molybdenum. The study reveals that dissolved molybdenum in Dillon Reservoir remains closely aligned with the total fraction, suggesting high solubility of molybdenum.

About the following data • DW monitors inlets and outlets of Dillon Res. 8 times/year. • 4 events in high-flow season (May-Aug.) • 4 events in low-flow season (Sept.-April) • DW has followed this monitoring design for over a decade. • Samples from all events are tested for both “dissolved” (filtered) and “total” (acid digested) metals. • All metals tests are for the same suite of 27 trace and “major” elements, including molybdenum. • In general for Dillon Res. area monitoring, Mo in the dissolved fraction is nearly identical to the total fraction, indicating most Mo from this monitoring is “soluble”.
