Samples for chemical analysis were pumped from various depths in Lakes Fryxell, Chad, Bonney, Diana (Taylor Valley), and also from two unnamed lakes, one in the Taylor Valley and one in the Wright Valley. Chloride, bicarbonate, end total hardness titrations were performed in the field. These determinations were checked in the laboratory and determination of sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium is proceeding. Samples of inflow waters were also taken from all the lakes visited.
