Extract

1. The method of water sample preservation used by Gad-Andresen is not suitable for nitrite or nitrate estimation.

2. Using Buch's method it has been shown that the variation in nitrite during the summer is from less than 0-001 mg. to about 0-01 mg. per litre and that the deeper water layers have more than the surface layers.
