Hydrogen Sulfide

There were 97 reservation sites with sufficient measurements of H2S to compute T-Tests.  The number showing significant trends was less dramatic, but still more than could be expected by chance.  Of the sites showing significant trends, upward trends predominated, and the dominance was more than could be explained by chance. Results for H2 S trends at reservation sites are summarized in Table 4.
