Fine-grained sediment is perhaps the most widespread and pervasive contaminant in
aquatic systems reflecting its role in influencing the quality of the water (eg, turbidity, vector …

Sediment fingerprinting is a technique that is increasingly being used to improve the
understanding of sediment dynamics within river basins. At present, one of the main …

Soil Erosion and Conservation provides a comprehensive treatment of the processes of soil
erosion, the methods that can be used for their control, and the issues involved in designing …

Recent years have seen a growing awareness of the wider environmental significance of the
suspended sediment loads transported by rivers and streams. This includes the importance …

The absence of guidelines for pre-selecting the most effective combination of properties for
inclusion in a composite fingerprint represents a key methodological uncertainty hampering …

This paper reviews our current knowledge and understanding of carbon processes in the
terrestrial ecosystem with a view to reducing soil carbon losses by optimising land-use and …

Turbidity is an important water quality variable, through its relation to light suppression, BOD
impact, sediment-associated contaminant transport, and suspended sediment effects on …

The detrimental impact of sediment and associated pollutants on water quality is widely
acknowledged, with many watercourses in the UK failing to meet the standard of 'good …

Water and sediment supplies from ungauged areas were calculated and combined with
datasets from gauging stations to establish sediment budgets. Using sediment budgets and …

Water is newsworthy: there is, or will be, a world water crisis. Aggravated by climate change,
we are approaching the limits of human exploitation of freshwater resources, notably in …
