Surface water and precipitation samples were taken from Bjerncaya Island and analysed for various constituents. The ion contents of the waters are related to the different kinds of rock found in this area. An ettempt has been made to calculate the evaporation from the concentrations of different ions. An approximate evaporation rate of 72 04, has been found, which corresponds to meteorological estimations.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
