Download or read book Limnological and Engineering Analysis of a Polluted Urban Lake written by Steven W. Effler and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 846 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Onondaga Lake in Syracuse, New York is a model for the analysis and management of a polluted urban lake. Sometimes referred to as "the most polluted lake in the United States", Onondaga Lake is one of only two lakes for which a federal advisory body has been set up to guide environmental remediation. The recipient of significant municipal effluent and industrial waste for more than a century, Onondaga Lake has been the focus of intensive limnological investigation and extensive remediation efforts. This book is a comprehensive presentation of the scientific knowledge about Onondaga Lake, based on research coordinated by the Upstate Freshwater Institute. Onondaga Lake: Limnology and Environmental Management of a Polluted Urban Lake is the most complete case study of a lake, and will be of interest to water quality scientists, engineers and managers, as well as environmental engineers, modelers, and policymakers.

Download or read book Limnological Organic Analyses by Quantitative Dichromate Oxidation written by John A. Maciolek and published by . This book was released on 1962 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A limnological oxidation technique, based on procedures employed in soil chemistry, was developed and tested by use of purified organic compounds and various natural substrates. A sample is oxidized by dichromate in a strongly acid medium maintained at 100 C. The amount of dichromate reacting (determined titrimetrically as the difference between the initial and final quantities) is reckoned as Oxygen Consumed, or weigh of oxygen required by the sample. The oxidation serves as the principal step for sensitive determinations of organic carbon (as CO2) and nitrogen (as NH3).

Download or read book Hydrological and Limnological Aspects of Lake Monitoring written by Pertti Heinonen and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2008-04-30 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Provides an extensive overview of all the most important aspects of lake monitoring studies describing methods of water sampling, analytical determination and data interpretation. Now that all EC countries must receive the EC Directive on Water Quality, there is a greater need to improve the quality of measurements, both in chemical and biological fields and this book describes the best practices in measuring water, quality, standard procedures and quality assurance in relation to current legislation and guidelines. The book provides coverage of: ? Abiotic processes and harmful substances in lakes ? Biocoenosis in evaluating the ecological status of lakes ? New lake monitoring techniques ? Quality assessment ? Managing of results The book also addresses the most important problems currently impacting lake resources: ? Eutrophication ? Water acidification and its impact on biodiversity ? The presence of endocrine disrupters ? The bioaccumulation of mercury in the food chain This is an essential guide to the subject for postgraduate students in environmental science and analytical chemistry, laboratories involved in water analysis, industrial companies producing effluent and regional environmental agencies. 'Hydrological and Limnological Aspects of Lake Monitoring' is the first book in the Water Quality Measurement Series, which provides a comprehensive coverage of the analytical techniques used for the measurement of substances in water, from sampling through to laboratory analysis. The series aims to offer practical answers to specific issues related to measurements of the water cycle quality, using a scientifically sound approach.
