Come On In, The Water's Fine?
| Division: | Génie et sciences de l'informatique / Aucun | | Catégorie: | Sénior | | Région: | United Counties | | Ville: | Cornwall, ON | | École: | Cornwall Collegiate & Vocational | | Sommaire: | The Cornwall Canal is a historic waterway with a potential for recreational activities. Recreational water quality is determined by aesthetic and health-related parameters. Water samples were taken from six canal locations seasonally to evaluate bacteriological and nutrient trends. Field and laboratory analyses demonstrated that the water quality was generally good but that it was affected by temperature, stream velocity, and the proximity of contaminates. |
