Iowa City study to map river pollutant dispersion
University of Iowa researchers launch an $86 167 project to model how channel bends and pollutant buoyancy affect downstream dispersion. Led by Profs Enzo Macagno and William Sayre, the study uses a 90 foot winding channel and an analog to digital computer to translate salt tracer data into dispersion formulas for wastes from sewage plants and other contaminants. Participants include John F Kennedy and graduate students C V Alonso Y C Chang and S Fukuoka.
