DR-19 northwest of the lake (31.616° N, 86.707° E; 48.4 °C, pH 6.6) and WQ-S-1 in the southeastern basin (31.473° N, 86.695° E; 50.4 °C, pH 7.0), the latter feeding a travertine. Water boron concentrations differ by a factor of about 8 between Table 2 (µg/L) and the text (mg/L), for every sample; the boron fluxes of Table 2 are consistent with the table values.
