Stochastic analysis of acid shocks generated by mixed hydrological processes / by A.G. Bobba, D.C.L. Lam, W.G. Booty, D.S. Jeffries and R.L. Thomas.: En13-5/90-79E-PDF

"High H+ concentration of stream flow events were analyzed in terms of the probability of magnitude, frequency, duration, and time of occurrence. Simple methods of representing the timing and duration of high H+ concentration flows as stochastic variables are presented. Existing stochastic models are applied to the probability distributions of the annual frequency of high H+ ion concentration flows and their magnitudes. A consideration of the statistical properties of the above stochastic variables leads to the development of a technique with which higher H+ concentration flow events exceeding any higher level of interest may be investigated without resorting to re-analysis of the historical data. The proposed methodology was applied to the daily H+ concentration flow records of two watersheds located in diverse hydrological and geochemical environments in Canada"--Abstract.
