	abstract = "High frequency (15-30 minute intervals) dissolved oxygen monitoring within best-available Missouri reference streams identified diel hypoxia patterns with several ecoregions. Low to moderate (0.5 - 1.5 mgO<SUB>2</SUB> m<SUP>&#8722;2</SUP> day<SUP>&#8722;1</SUP>) levels of sediment oxygen demand may be the primary sink causing or contributing to hypoxic conditions during warm-weather low-flow conditions. Understanding processes yielding low D.O. conditions are critically relevant in permitting and use attainability contexts. Implications of low D.O. and ambient-based criteria within Clean Water Act programs are discussed and explored.",
