Abstract
In 1987, the United States of America and the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics completed 15 years of cooperation in the field of environmental protection. Overviews are provided of joint activities in water planning and management. Among the papers are discussions of water quality management strategies and modeling techniques for water protection (USSR) and of mass balance approaches and nonpoint agricultural measures in water quality management (USA). Other contributions address predictive models of water body conditions and problems in investigating petroleum pollution (USSR) and describe mesocosms for evaluating ecosystem health and water quality research in the Great Lakes (USA). Finally, papers are presented regarding ion exchange in fish and biotesting of aquatic environments (USSR) and describing aquatic toxicity test methodologies.
