Title Phytoplankton successions and lake dynamics in Las Vegas Bay, Lake Mead, Nevada
Creator Koening, Ervon R. Tew, Richard W. Deacon, James E.
Description Phytoplankton successions, applications of the general growth equation, and physical measurements have been employed to investigate events occurring at the interface between industrial and sewage effluent contained in Las Vegas Wash and the waters of Lake Mead, Nevada. The data indicate that the entering waters tend to form a density current interrupted at intervals by dynamic effects generated in the lake. The dynamic relationships described here for the spring months suggest that a much...
