Abstract

Evaluates the feasibility of using hypolimnetic oxygenation in Walker Lake, Nevada. Use of experimental chambers to examine if maintenance of an oxygenated sediment-water interface would inhibit accumulation of ammonia and sulfide in water overlaying sediments; Monitoring of ammonia profiles in 1998 to compare the accumulation rate of ammonia with experimental results.
