Transport and Fate of Nitrate in a Glacial Outwash Aquifer in Relation to Ground-Water Age, Land Use Practices and Redox Processes
By Larry J. Puckett and Timothy K. Cowdery
[Journal of Environmental Quality, vol. 31, no. 3, p. 782-796 ]Figure 6. Argon and nitrogen gas concentrations for samples collected during 1994, 1995, and 1997 and their theoretical values. Values to the right of the air-saturated water equilibrium line represent excess nitrogen concentrations. Horizontal tick marks on the equilibrium line indicate Ar and N2 equilibrium concentrations from 0 degrees to 20 degrees C in 2-degree increments.
