The analysis of heavy metals in sediments, associated with geochronology, can identify the
historical accumulation of these contaminants that occurred over time as a result of …

This study provides the sedimentation rates (SR) of three drainage basins at Itaipu Reservoir
(Paraná State, Brazil) by applying 210Pb and 137Cs geochronological methods (CFCS and …

The study of Te, As, Bi, Sb and Se (TABS) has increased over the past years due to their use

Abstract The Rio Grande Reservoir supplies water to four counties. Two sediment cores
were collected, one was sliced every 2 cm for INAA and dating determinations; the other was …

Many studies have found evidence of processes of eutrophication and contamination by
metals in reservoirs worldwide. The present work discusses the history of changes …

Paleolimnological research can shed light on a broad range of environmental concerns;
however, such studies are scarce in reservoirs. To address this lack of knowledge, a …
