Abstract

Selection of fingerprinting properties or tracers with contrasting behaviour was used to assist in discriminating between several potential sources and in providing more definitive and reliable results. Examples of a multi-parameter approach to fingerprinting suspended sediment source in two small catchments in Devon, United Kingdom, are presented. -from Authors
