Empirical models based on the universal soil loss equation fail to predict sediment discharges from Chesapeake Bay catchments.

abstract：:Fish are commonly used for monitoring the quality of waters receiving pulp mill effluents (PMEs). Isotopic assays of fish tissues have the potential to provide empirical evidence to link an effluent source to exposure. We show in a 45-d factorial laboratory experiment that different exposure pathways lead to isotopic ...
