Using source‐specific models to test the impact of sediment source classification on sediment fingerprinting [PDF]
AbstractSediment fingerprinting estimates sediment source contributions directly from river sediment. Despite being fundamental to the interpretation of sediment fingerprinting results, the classification of sediment sources and its impact on the accuracy of source apportionment remain underinvestigated.

Assessment of variation in bacterial composition among microhabitats in a mangrove environment using DGGE fingerprints and barcoded pyrosequencing. [PDF]
Here, we use DGGE fingerprinting and barcoded pyrosequencing data, at six cut-off levels (85-100%), of all bacteria, Alphaproteobacteria and Betaproteobacteria to assess composition in the rhizosphere of nursery plants and nursery-raised transplants ...

There is an increasing need for reliable information on the origin of fine-grained sediment transported by river systems, but critically, at temporal scales that reflect the timing and pattern of sediment mobilization and delivery in response to ...

Fingerprinting of bed sediment in the Tay Estuary, Scotland: an environmental magnetism approach [PDF]
Sediment fingerprinting is commonly used for sediment provenance studies in lakes, rivers and reservoirs and on hillslopes and floodplains. This investigation explores the mixing of terrestrial and marine-derived sediment in the Tay Estuary, Scotland ...

Unraveling sources of sediment supply, their temporal and spatial variability is of key importance to determine origin of deposits and to explore the formation mechanism of Selenga Delta landscape units.

Iron mineralogy as a fingerprint of former steelmaking activities in river sediments [PDF]
Submerged sediment cores were collected upstream of a dam in the Orne River, northeastern France. This dam was built in the context of steelmaking to constitute a water reservoir for blast furnace cooling and wet cleaning of furnace smokes. The dam also enhanced sediment deposition in the upstream zone.

A Review of Studies on Sediment Sources of Small Catchments Using Composite Fingerprinting
Composite fingerprinting, one of the most important method for sediment sources, is extensively used due to its accuracy, ubiquity and simpleness. Composite fingerprinting follows three steps for study on sediment sources.

Influence of basin connectivity on sediment source, transport, and storage within the Mkabela Basin, South Africa [PDF]
The management of sediment and other non-point source (NPS) pollution has proven difficult, and requires a sound understanding of particle movement through the drainage system. The primary objective of this investigation was to obtain an understanding of

Are source groups always appropriate when sediment fingerprinting? The direct comparison of source and sediment samples as a methodological step [PDF]
The classification of sediment source groups is often the least thoroughly considered part of a sediment fingerprinting methodology; however, the use of inappropriate source groups can be the cause of significant uncertainty.
