Atmospheric and terrestrial effects of closed-cycle cooling systems: an annotated bibliography
An annotated bibliography is presented of almost 600 references dealing with the environmental impacts of closed-cycle cooling systems. The references were extracted from the open literature for the period up to the spring of 1979 and from environmental reports and impact statements prepared for or by the electric utility industry. Topics covered include atmospheric discharges from cooling towers, predicted cumulative effects of releases from energy parks, sensitivity of agricultural crops and native vegetation, salt deposition, aesthetic impacts, atmospheric dispersion and plume behavior, analytical methods and mathematical models and studies to assess the effects of closed-cycle cooling operations. References are arranged by subject category and indexes are provided to authors' names, energy facility names and geographic location of field research.
