Abstract: Investigations of a mountain stream, Boone Fork Stream, in Watauga County, North Carolina were made to determine the seasonal and linear distribution of benthic algal communities. In addition, data on nutrient concentration of nitrate nitrogen, ammonium nitrogen, and orthophosphate phosphorous were gathered to ascertain the effects of nutrient fluctuations on relative biomass and species periodicity.
