Uric acid in the surface waters of Spitsbergen and its role in the dissolution processes which affect carbonate rocks
Using High Performance Liquid Chromatography, concentrations of uric acid in the surface waters of two non−glaciated catchments (Fugle and Dynamisk) on Spitsbergen were measured. Measurements of specific conductivity enabled us to perform tests on the dissolution of the carbonate rocks present in bo...
