This class includes the three-parameter lognormal distribution which is frequently used as a regional model for lake chemistry. The adequacy of the lognormal distribution can be assessed by testing the significance of a single parameter in the proposed model. It is shown that the three-parameter lognormal distribution does not fit the majority of data sets from Eastern Canada. Furthermore, the pH-alkalinity relationship developed by Small and Sutton is used to yield a class of probability models representing the derived distributions for pH"--Abstract.Includes abstract in French.gccstLakesgccstChemistryNaderisamani, Amir,‏‎ 1951-‏ author.Canada.
