| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
From this study, it becomes understood that the rivers in the biggest hot spring area in Japan, Beppu, are strongly affected by hot spring drainage discharged from boiling hot springs existing in sewage unimproved area. The drainage of unused hot spring water from the boiling hot springs all the time is suspected of having a hand in the affair. Annual emission rates of Li, Cs and Rb, which are mainly derived from boiling hot spring water and useful metallic elements, are 34，0.4 and 5.4 tons, respectively, whereas those of As and B, which are also originated from boiling hot spring water, are 4.3 and 82 tons, respectively. This study made it clear that inflows of hot spring drainage into rivers cause increase of diatom amount in several rivers in Beppu, and annual discharge rate of the diatom to the Beppu Bay is estimated to be more than 10 tons a year.
