The biological and chemical characteristics of aquatic environments depend on a generally complicated balance of physical, chemical, and biological processes. Basic to describing these characteristics is an understanding of transport processes including both advection and mixing. For a given water body, these processes depend heavily on the mass, momentum, and energy transfers at boundaries and the internal response of the system. Many of these transfers and responses are poorly understood. Broad goals of this project are to quantitatively understand the physical processes responsible for the transport of conservative and nonconservative solutes of biological and chemical importance. Through the use of time series...

ScienceBase brings together the best information it can find about USGS researchers and offices to show connections to publications, projects, and data. We are still working to improve this process and information is by no means complete. If you don't see everything you know is associated with you, a colleague, or your office, please be patient while we work to connect the dots. Feel free to contact sciencebase@usgs.gov.
