The oxygen minimum of the Elbe river

Description

Several longitudinal profiles for oxygen have been recorded in connection with the reduced oxygen content of the Elbe river in June 1979. Apart from conventional methods of measurement, e.g. titration of water samples and in-situ measurements in stations with oxygen probes, also continuous recordings of the oxygen content of the Elbe water were made aboard the MONITOR measuring vessel. The recorded oxygen distributions are discussed as well as selected heavy metal and nutrient concentrations. (orig.)

Abstract (German)

Im Zusammenhang mit dem verminderten Sauerstoffgehalt der Elbe im Juni 1979 wurden mehrere Sauerstofflaengsprofile aufgenommen. Neben herkoemmlichen Messmethoden, wie Titration von Wasserproben und In-situ-Messungen auf Stationen mit Sauerstoffsonden, wurden auch kontinuierliche Registrierungen des Sauerstoffgehaltes im Elbewasser in einer Durchlaufstrecke an Bord des Messschiffes MONITOR durchgefuehrt. Die gefundenen Sauerstoffverteilungen sowie ausgewaehlte Schwermetall- und Naehrstoffkonzentrationen werden diskutiert. (orig.)
