Abstract: Disclosed is a highly efficient method of and apparatus for transferring atmospheric oxygen to water by aerating a body of water at or near its edges to generate in the water''s upper stratum converging currents which move toward the central section of the body of water. Conventional pumping, brush-type or turbine-type aerators can be used, but for best results a novel apparatus of our design is used. Preferably, the converging currents are directed slightly off-center so that a whirlpool is formed at this section. Alternatively, a contaminated body of water can be aerated at a region about midway between the central section of the body of water and the periphery of the body of water to generate in the water''s upper stratum some converging currents which move toward the central section of the body of water and some diverging currents which move toward the periphery of the body of water.
