Abstract
The nitrogenous oxygen demand exerted by sewage and secondarily treated effluent may seriously lower the water quality of receiving streams. Comprehensive stream mangement requires the ability to predict where this component of the oxygen demand will be exerted, and at what rate. Efforts to include nitrification in stream models are unlikely to be highly successful without some understanding of the ecology of the responsible organisms. The investigation was undertaken to provide such information.
