Question: Natural dissolved organic material ( DOM ) concentration in the streams entering a 2 1 0 5 m 3 Upper Klamath Lake averages 7 m

Natural dissolved organic material (DOM) concentration in the streams entering a 2105m3 Upper Klamath Lake averages 7mgL; total annual inflow is 105m3. Due to evaporation, annual outflow of liquid water (via Link River Dam and spillway, and a municipal water intake) is only 9104m3, and DOM concentration in the outflow is 6.5mgL. What is the sink strength for DOM, expressed in mg per cubic meter of water per day? Assume the Upper Klamath Lake is at steady state. (10 points)
