Components of the carbon system were followed with bi-monthly sampling for one year (July, 1970, to July, 1971). Measurements included dissolved organic carbon (DOC), particulate organic carbon (POC), carbon dioxide, and bicarbonate (no measureable carbonate occurred). Total carbon, total organic carbon and total inorganic carbon were determined from the basic data. Total pond budgets for all components of the carbon system were calculated and compared. Pond treatment with an algicide (May, 1971) and a fertilizer (June, 1971) was monitored through diurnal and every four day sampling from May 14, to July 29, 1971. ... |
