Analog-digital models of stream-aquifer systems
E. A. Moulder, C.T. Jenkins
1969, Report
The best features of analog and digital computers were combined to make a management model of a stream-aquifer system. The analog model provides a means for synthesizing, verifying, and summarizing aquifer properties; the digital model permits rapid calculation of the effects of water management practices. Given specific management alternatives, a...

Water flow to the chambers was then discontinued for 30 minutes during which the oxygen content of the water...
Determination of phosphate in natural waters by activation analysis of tungstophosphoric acid
Herbert E. Allen, Richard B. Hahn
1969, Environmental Science & Technology (3) 844-848
Activation analysis may be used to determine quantitatively traces of phosphate in natural waters. Methods based on the reaction 31P(n,γ)32P are subject to interference by sulfur and chlorine which give rise to 32P through n,p and n,α reactions. If the ratio of phosphorus to sulfur or chlorine is small, as...
