Volatile halocarbons as tracers of pulp mill effluent plumes / M.E. Comba, V.S. Palabrica and K.L.E. Kaiser.: En13-5/93-29E-PDF

"This work describes the use of volatile halocarbons in a pulp mill effluent, including chloroform, bromodichloromethane, tri- and tetrachloroethylene, as tracers for the distribution and movements of effluent currents in a receiving water bay (Jackfish Bay, Lake Superior) on the north shore of Lake Superior. The results indicate the simplicity and usefulness of the technique and the significantly improved resolution of effluent plume delineation over the customary use of conductance profiles"--Abstract.
