Winter low flow tracer dye studies : Athabasca River, Athabasca to Bitumount, February and March, 1992: Part II: Mixing characteristics / by G. Van Der Vinne.: R71-49/3-14E

Focused on the calculation of mixing coefficients using field dye-tests on the Athabasca River between the towns of Athabasca and Bitumount in February-March 1992. The test was completed under low-flow, ice covered conditions in late winter (February-March 1992); the period most critical for potential impacts on the aquatic ecosystem. The calculated coefficients will be useful in modelling of the dilution of effluent along the specific study reach and, when combined with similar data from other tests (ie. Hinton to Athabasca in 1989 and Bitumount to Lake Athabasca in 1979), along the entire length of the Athabasca River.--Study perspective
