Abstract
The effects of respiratory oxygen uptake by photosynthetic benthos on the water quality of streams is examined. Methods for evaluating these effects are given together with results obtained in a survey of the Truckee River. The significance of daily minimum dissolved oxygen concentrations in streams is considered and techniques for prediction of this value incorporating benthic algal effects are described.
