34 For diffusion calculation, need to choose an interval where T epi is stable and T hyp is warming. Dollar Bay – Temperature Calculations Hypolimnion temperature mass balance.

35 Sediment oxygen demand reflects the diffusion of oxygen into the sediment to meet the metabolic needs of microorganisms participating in the aerobic decomposition of organic matter. SOD is also exerted through the aerobic oxidation of reduced species byproducts of anaerobic respiration. The mass balance, for SOD alone is … Sediment Oxygen Demand uml lml

36 For the SOD calculation, we need to choose the interval of oxygen depletion. Dollar Bay – Oxygen Calculations (the question of the cones)
