Suspended sediment is a major factor in the biological and geochemical cycling of trace
elements and nutrients in aquatic systems. The design of effective studies involving the …

This paper reviews advances in methods for estimating fluvial transport of suspended
sediment and nutrients. Research from the past four years, mostly dealing with estimating …

Why does land management so often fail to prevent soil erosion, deforestation, salination
and flooding? How serious are these problems, and for whom? This book, first published in …

This review and commentary sets out the need for authoritative and concise information on
the expected error distributions and magnitudes in observational data. We discuss the …

Land–ocean transfer of sediment by rivers is a key pathway for material transfer on Earth.
Contemporary data on the sediment loads of rivers provide clear evidence of significant …

Statistical considerations show that the sediment, solute, or pollutant load of a river is likely
to be underestimated by methods in which unmeasured concentrations are estimated from …

Although a few texts on forest hydrology are available, they cover very little, if any,
background on water resources. On the other hand, books dealing with water resources do …

In the absence of actual suspended sediment concentration (SSC) measurements,
hydrologists have used sediment rating (sediment transport) curves to estimate (predict) …

Results obtained from erosion plots and catchment experiments provide clear evidence of
the sensitivity of erosion rates to land use change and related human activity. Evidence for …

Investigating the transport of suspended solids by water sampling usually leads to an
underestimation of loads and an unrealistically high sampling frequency is required to …
