✦ Synopsis

The temporal distribution of chloride concentration in the Oswego River was determined at 6 hr intervals for a 3 mo period during the summer of 1982. The dynamics of relative flow and chloride contributions from the three major sources forming the Oswego River, and the dynamics of flow releases from one of the sources, chloride-polluted Onondaga Lake, were determined from the above measurements, available chloride concentrations, and flow data for the system, through application of a simple mass balance on chloride. The chloride concentration and load in the Oswego River were found to be highly variable with time, and largely due to the dynamics of flow release from Onondaga Lake. The chloride distribution in the Oswego River, with its unique dynamics and chemically conservative nature, make it a valuable hydraulic tracer for the system.
