Abstract
A new method of measuring the discharge rates of submarine springs is described. The method is based on a dilution analysis of radioactive slug within a fixed volume dilution cell. The special conditions existing in a spring discharging hot and saline water through a funnel-shaped crater, on the bottom of the Sea of Galilee, provides the necessary conditions for the dilution analysis. Experimental field results support the feasibility of the proposed method.
