Sediment-related fluvial transmission of contaminants : some advances by 1979 / R.J. Allan.: En36-502/107E-PDF

"Suspended sediment can be a major transport mechanism for nutrients and contaminants in drainage systems. Bottom sediment pollution has been extensively studied, but until recently suspended sediment has seldom been chemically analyzed. Sufficient suspended sediment could not be collected for detailed nutrient and contaminant analysis until the advent of land-based continuous flow centrifuges. This report describes the evolution of this area of investigation and the stage of development reached in Canada as of 1979"--Abstract.
