No, I believe correl is the correlation coefficient. See here for more information on interpreting the output of lm()
.
You can get more information on the model using summary()
like so:
my_lm <- lm(Specific_conductance ~ tds, data = my_data)
summary(my_lm)
Call:
lm(formula = Specific_conductance ~ tds, data = my_data)

Going to bow out now as this is not my area of expertise, hopefully someone can help with any further questions.
