The Central Yangtze ecoregion in China includes a number of lakes, but these have been
greatly affected by human activities over the past several decades, resulting in severe loss of …

Abstract The Yangtze Plain (floodplains in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze
River) is a region with numerous lakes, including the three largest freshwater lakes in China …

Abstract Surface sediment (0–10 cm) samples were collected from 12 typical sites
throughout the Dongting Lake. Samples were detected by inductively coupled plasma–mass …

Seven heavy metals (Cr, Mn, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Pb) were measured in surface sediments from
the Lishui River watershed, an area with increased soil erosion in China. The mean …

The concentrations of major anions and cations, nitrogen and phosphorus, dissolved and
particulate trace elements, and organic pollutants were determined for the middle and lower …

The Jianghan Plain and the Dongting lake area, located in the middle reaches of the
Yangtze River are famous for their abundant freshwater lakes. The lakes have undergone …

Silicon isotope compositions of main channel samples of the Yangtze River were
systematically investigated along with their chemical compositions. The concentration of …

Sediment organic carbon (SOC) is a precious archive that synthesizes anthropogenic
processes that remove geochemical fluxes from watersheds. However, the scarcity of …

Due to spatial and temporal variability an effective monitoring system for water resources
must consider the use of remote sensing to provide information. Synthetic Aperture Radar …

In this study, Pb isotopic composition of bulk sediments and 1 M HCl leachates/residues of
samples from the Four Rivers' inlets to Dongting Lake (China) was determined to identify …
