Abstract
Concentrations of major ions in surface waters of the rivers of Khara-Murin and Snezhnaya are compared based on data of many-year observations carried out in the 1950s and 2000s. The concentrations of HCO −3 , Cl−, Ca2+, Mg2+, Na+ + K+ are shown to be stable. A considerable increase in SO −24 concentration was revealed.
