| Abstract: | For several years, dissolved oxygen in the L‘Anguille River has been reduced to concentrations of less than 5.0 milligrams per liter during the summer and fall. In addition, concentrations of pesticides have been reported consistently at one long-term station on the river, and trace metals have been reported at two long-term monitoring sites. The U.S. Geological Survey conducted an intensive study of the L‘Anguille River basin during the summer and fall of 1978 in cooperation with the Arkansas Department of Pollution Control and Ecology. An assessment of the general water quality was made; the causes of stream dissolved-oxygen reductions were determined; and the occurrence of pesticides and trace metals in the basin was documented. A steady-state, segmented, dissolved-oxygen model was calibrated and used to project simulated dissolved-oxygen profiles. (Kosco-USGS) |
