Abstract

The information is presented on hydrochemical studies performed in August 2018 at the middle and lower reaches of the Lena River from Yakutsk to Kyusyur settlements. The studies resulted in generating the database containing 80 parameters of water chemical composition including the stable isotopes of water, particulate matter, and DOC. The results obtained made it possible for the quantitative evaluation of the fluxes of dissolved and particulate matter from the headwaters towards the mouth of the Lena River and to ascertain the regularities in the transformation of these fluxes.
