Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The study presents data of hydrophysical observations and the results of studying the chemical composition of water and suspended particulate matter obtained in April of 2016 and 2017 during the complex studies in the Ural River lower reaches and in the Caspian Sea region adjoining the river mouth. It is revealed that the chemical composition of river runoff varied greatly not only from year to year but also within the period of field studies that may be explained by the water inflow from different parts of the river catchment during the spring flood.
