Research on water interconnections within the Sar Mountains aquatorium by radioactive hydrogen isotope tritium
The waters of two lakes and two streams that dominate in the Sar Mountains aquatorium were analyzed. The tritium profile of soil was also recorded. All samples were taken at approximately the same time, together with samples of precipitation. During the period of taking samples, the ambient temperat...

Summary: | The waters of two lakes and two streams that dominate in the Sar Mountains aquatorium were analyzed. The tritium profile of soil was also recorded. All samples were taken at approximately the same time, together with samples of precipitation. During the period of taking samples, the ambient temperature conditions were taken into account for ten days around the time of sampling. Monitoring of the seasonal maximum with taking into account the obtained tritium soil profile and the temperature on and around the day of sampling unambiguously showed that all tested water in the Sar Mountains aquatorium is of atmospheric origin and as such unsuitable for any major transformation for commercial purposes. |
