Abstract: | The autocorrelation technique is applied to ammonia data observed in the river Rhine and is used for two purposes. On one hand the error in the determination of the NH4+-concentration, caused by both analysing and sampling errors, can be quantified. On the other hand the behaviour of the NH4+-concentration and NH4+-load is described. It is indicated that the NH4+-load is a stochastic variable containing a periodicity, whereas the NH4+-concentration is a merely stochastic variable with a large time constant. |
