THE DISPOSITION OF NA, MN, AND AL AT TWO CALIFORNIA BEACHES,
Abstract
The disposition of Na, Mn, and Al in California beaches was examined by studying two typical beaches, one near San Diego at Camp Pendleton, and one at Ocean Beach in San Francisco. A pro file amount of Na, Mn, and Al contained in each beach soil is presented from the water's edge to several hundred feet inland. An attempt was made to follow the growth and leaching of Na from the Ocean Beach area over a period of several months during the winter (rainy season). During the 1963 rainy season the experiment was abruptly terminated when the passage of a series of large storms removed the beach area where the experi ment had taken place. (Author)
