with their results of total amount of Cs-137 in sediment which is 10 times larger than previous estimated value based on observation. Main problem is that they only considered sedimentation and resuspension process in a similar manner to Europe. In Fukushima case, very high concentration of Cs-137 passed through on the sediment in the earlier period. Therefore, absorption and desorption process...

Fire management addressing post-fire erosion and aquatic ecosystems tends to focus on shortterm effects persisting up to about a decade after fire. A longer perspective is important in understanding natural variability in post-fire erosion and sedimentation, the role of these processes in structuring habitat, and future expectations in light of a warming climate and environmental change. In coo...

The existence and function of tidally dominated and predominantly allochthonous marshes are ultimately contingent upon the operation of hydrodynamic and sedimentary processes within constraints imposed by the available accommodation space and sediment supply. This paper re-interprets published data relating to contemporary vertical marsh growth and sea-level rise in the context of the conceptua...

Radioactive fallout 137CS (cesium-137) deposited across the landscape from atmospheric nuclear tests is strongly absorbed on soil particles limiting its movement by chemical and biological processes. Most 137CS movement in the environment is by physical processes; therefore, 137CS is a unique tracer for studying erosion and sedimentation. Cesium-137 loss from a watershed has been shown to corre...

The study analyses the efficiency of a Sequentional Sedimentation-Biofiltration System (SSBS) built on the Sokolowka river in Lodz (Poland). It was constructed to purify a small urban river whose hydrological regime is dominated by stormwater and meltwater. The SSBS was constructed on a limited area as multi-zone constructed wetlands. The SSBS consists of three zones: sedimentation zone with st...
