The volume contains all the technical papers prepared from data collected for the project Influence of Impoundments and Controlled Releases on Water Quality, from September 1962 through December 1966. Research on this project was divided into two broad categories: (1) investigative research, designed to better understand reservoir water quality behavior; and (2) engineering research, designed to develop engineering methods for the control of reservoir water quality. Papers included in this Compilation cover a review of the literature and a statement of research needs; research on the dissolved oxygen budget in reservoirs, on the behavior of the nitrogen cycle in reservoirs, on the behavior of synthetic organics in stratified reservoirs, and on the use of artificial destratification as an engineering technique for managing and maintaining good quality water in reservoirs.
