Erosion is a major cause of soil degradation. Understanding the sources of sediment and
the processes that exacerbate this problem is crucial for soil conservation. Remote and …

Soil erosion and associated sediment redistribution are key environmental problems in
Central Argentina. Specific land uses and management practices, such as intensive grazing …

Identification of hot spots of land degradation is strongly related with the selection of soil
tracers for sediment pathways. This research proposes the complementary and integrated …

Introduction Interest in the use of sediment tracers as a tool to complement traditional water
erosion or deposition measurements has increased due to the additional information they …

Objective: Understanding the tracing approach of rare earth elements (REE) in soil erosion
and sediment source identification, and clarifying their uncertainties are important to obtain …

Excessive transport of fine sediment, and its associated pollutants, can cause detrimental
impacts in aquatic environments. It is therefore important to perform accurate sediment …

Application of sediment source fingerprinting techniques to generate reliable information on
sediment sources is growing, because of the global environmental importance of elevated …

Abstract Knowledge of temporal variations in sediment sources is necessary to identify the
principal sources of sediment for effective implementation of soil conservation measures and …

Intensification of water erosion by agricultural activities is one of the main causes of soil
degradation in subtropical regions. In addition to the on-site negative impacts observed in …

Purpose Sediments adversely impact the quality of surface waters and are a significant
source of contaminants, such as nutrients and pesticides, in agricultural watersheds. The …
