This report summarizes the contribution of the Los Alamos National Laboratory to the Nevada Waste Storage Investigations for the third quarter of FY 1984. The status of the following studies is given: (1) geochemistry (groundwater chemistry, natural isotope chemistry, hydrothermal geochemistry, solubility determinations, sorption and precipitation, dynamic transport processes, retardation sensitivity analysis, and applied diffusion); (2) mineralogy-petrology of tuff; (3) tectonics and volcanism; (4) tuff laboratory properties; and (5) sealing materials evaluation. 51 refs., 19 figs., 33 tabs.
