摘要：

We present nebular spectroscopy of H II regions in the M81 Group irregular galaxies M81dB, Ho I, and IC 2574. The empirical, or bright line, method is used to determine the oxygen abundances and ionization parameters. When the [O III] lambda 4363 line is detected, the directly calculated oxygen abundances agree with the empirical values within the uncertainties. The oxygen abundances are typically similar to 0.12 solar and are consistent with the log (O/H)-M(B) relation. Nitrogen abundances are also normal for irregular galaxies.
