Abstract | The report covers certain aspects of a comprehensive study of water quality in the Great Lakes and Illinois River Basins. The Great Lakes and their tributaries are part of the St. Lawrence River system, draining to the Atlantic Ocean, while the Illinois River drains to the Gulf of Mexico through the Mississippi River. The two Basins are being studied jointly because of their interrelation at the city of Chicago, which straddles the divide between them. |
