Records of clastic sediment from lakes that receive glacial meltwater provide a means for inferring past glacial fluctuations. However, increased clastic sedimentation has been interpreted to indicate both glacial advance ...

Mercury (Hg) is a toxic metal that is transported globally through the atmosphere. Emissions of Hg from mineral reservoirs and recycling between soil/biomass, oceans, and the atmosphere are fundamental to the global Hg ...

The post-basaltic sediments of the Cretaceous Bauru Group in the Parana Basin cover an area of 117,000 km(2) in São Paulo State, and are subdivided into the Caiua, Pirapozinho, Santo Anastacio, Birigui, Aracatuba, Adamantina ...

Active gully systems developed on highly weathered or loose parent material are an important source of runoff and sediment production in degraded areas. However, a decrease of land pressure may lead to a return of a partial ...

This short paper describes an outcrop that is a very good example of the aeolian sedimentation in the Piramboia Formation (Triassic) in the Parana Basin. -English summary

The distribution of mercury in sediments of the Patos Lagoon estuary and nearby coastal marine deposits has been investigated for the period 1998–2008. Polluted urban soils and coastal reclamation fills are the principal ...
