2022 E. coli results from surface water collections within horse concession zones of the Cades Cove Riding Stables, Abrams Creek, TN, Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
These data represent ten (10) weeks of monitoring E. coli levels in Abrams Creek upstream and downstream of the Cades Cove Riding Stables in Cades Cove, TN, GRSM. Water samples from Abrams Creek were later taken to Twin Creeks Science Center, Gatlinburg, TN, GRSM, where nutrient packs were added to the samples, which were then aliquoted into sealed trays and placed in an incubator for 24-hours. After the 24-hour incubation period, trays were removed and placed under a blacklight hood to determine the number of aliquoted wells that fluoresced from bacterial growth. From these observations, E.coli numbers were recorded and later quantified using the IDEXX Water MPN Generator V 1.4.4.
