Subsidence control on river morphology and grain size in the Ganga Plain
The Ganga Plain represents a large proportion of the current foreland 14 basin to the Himalaya. The Himalayan-sourced waters irrigate the Plain via major river 15 networks that support approximately 10% of the global population. However, some of 16 these rivers are also the source of devastating floods. The tendency for some of these 17 rivers to flood is directly linked to their large scale mo...
متن کاملHeavy Metals Contamination in the Surface Sediments of Talar River, north of Iran
Background and Purpose: The contamination by potentially toxic element (PTE) is a common environmental issue in worldwide rivers. The present study examined PTEs concentration in sediments of Talar River which is one of the main rivers in the Sothern Caspian Basin. Materials and Methods: The sediment samples (n= 44) were collected from top 0–5 cm of surface sediment in the main channel and flo...
متن کاملHydrogeochemistry of Groundwater and Arsenic Adsorption Characteristics of Subsurface Sediments in an Alluvial Plain, SW Taiwan
Many studies were conducted to investigate arsenic mobilization in different alluvial plains worldwide. However, due to the unique endemic disease associated with arsenic (As) contamination in Taiwan, a recent research was re-initiated to understand the transport behavior of arsenic in a localized alluvial plain. A comprehensive approach towards arsenic mobility, binding, and chemical speciatio...
متن کاملEvaluation of the status of heavy metal pollution in surface water and sediments of the Nil River (North Eastern Algeria)
Water and sediment samples were collected from six different stations, located along the Nil River between February and June 2015. Concentrations of cadmium, lead, zinc, and copper were determined. The extent of the sediment pollution was assessed, using the multiple pollution indices, namely contamination factor (CF), pollution load index (PLI), and the geoaccumulation index (Igeo). The result...
