  • Abstract
    A study of an unusually compact and well defined river system containing many environmental factors leading to water pollution has been carried out by neutron activation analysis. Detailed baseline measurements of the levels of sodium, chlorine, magnesium, manganese, calcium, strontium, and aluminum were made and tests made above and below major effluent sources.
