Importance of Flood Samples for Estimating Sediment and Nutrient Loads in Mediterranean Rivers

Importance of Flood Samples for Estimating Sediment and Nutrient Loads in Mediterranean Rivers

Protecting the quality of coastal water bodies requires the assessment of contaminant discharge brought by rivers. Numerous methods have been proposed for calculating sediment and nutrient loads. The most widely used and generally recommended are the flow-weighted mean concentration method (FWMC) an...
