Abstract
A method for the determination of lead in waters and sediments by electrothermal atomization atomic absorption spectrometry was developed. The method was applied to Lake Donner in California. Lead concentrations on the surface water were below the detection limit of 2.0 μg/L, at a depth of 14.5 feet were in the 35–41 μg/L range, and in the sediments were in the 0.012–0.032% range.
