Abstract

Data from permanent seasonal observations are used to show changes in the chemical composition of water and the discharge of major dissolved chemicals by rivers flowing into the White Sea in years with different water abundances. The proportions of the anthropogenic component in the discharge of nitrate nitrogen and in the total of principal ions were evaluated for the Nizhniy Vyg River.
