Geochemical characteristics of the potential source material contributing to particulate phosphorus loads in South Tobacco Creek / Tatiana Mayer.: En13-5/96-156E-PDF

"Geochemical characteristics of the source material were investigated in order to developcriteria for identification and quantification of sediment sources in South Tobacco Creekwatershed. South Tobacco Creek is a tributary of the Red River, which is a major non-point source contributor of sediment and nutrient loads to Lake Winnipeg. Erosion of agricultural soils and streambank erosion results in increased sediment and nutrient loads in the South Tobacco Creek, and subsequently in the Red River, thus contributing to eutrophication problem of the receiving water body, Lake Winnipeg"--Abstract.
