1.A result of a 7-day BOD test performed on a sample from anoligotrophic lake was 10 mg/L. The base 'e' BOD rate constant determined from previous studies was estimated to be 0.10d-1. Determine the ultimate BOD and 5-day BOD of the sample taken from the lake.
2.The evaporation rate from the surface of a 3,650-acre lake is 100 acre-ft/day. Estimate the depth change in the lake in feet during a 1-year period if the net inflow to the lake is 25 cfs. Is the depth increasing or decreasing? What is the change in centimeters?
