The chemical composition of the water was measured along 9 stations downstream with respect to Ca<sup>2+</sup>, Mg<sup>2+</sup>, Na<sup>+</sup>,K<sup>+</sup>, Cl<sup>-</sup>, carbonate alkalinlty, and SO<sub>4</sub><sup>2-</sup>. Temperature and pH were measured in situ. Small rectangular shaped tablets of limestone from the area were immersed into the stream for short periods and water analyses were carried out at the same time. From weight increase of the tablets, precipitation rates展开更多
