Source Region Geochemistry From Unmixing Downstream Sedimentary Elemental Compositions

Abstract The geochemistry of river sediments is routinely used to obtain information about geologic and environmental processes occurring upstream. For example, downstream samples are used to constrain chemical weathering and physical erosion rates upstream, as well as the locations of mineral depos...
