Validation of TOXFATE, a contaminant fate model for a large lake system (Lake Ontario) / by Efraim Halfon and Barry G. Oliver.: En13-5/85-27E-PDF
"Varying amounts of toxic contaminants have entered Lake Ontario from the Niagara River since 1909 and these contaminants represent a potential hazard to drinking water and fish populations. ... In this paper, results from TOXFATE, a simulation model, are compared to field measurements for four chlorinated organic compounds for Lake Ontario. The agreement between model predictions and field measurements was good for all compounds"--Exec. summary.
