Abstract
Studies of the Niagara River, as a point source input into Lake Ontario, were made using various microbiological and physical parameters, in April, June and October, 1974. Analysis of the data suggested the existence of a high positive association between these parameters. In addition, high horizontal variability between sampling stations was found in the three studies. Although vertical variability was not statistically significant in April, some parameters showed vertical heterogeneity during June and October. An explanation for the variability of microbiological parameters in terms of the physical parameters is given, using a backward step-wise regression procedure. A simple model was developed to explain the variability in the microbiological parameters in terms of changes in water density.
