Sediment budget of a Maumee River headwater tributary: how streambank erosion, streambed-sediment storage, and streambed-sediment source inform our understanding of legacy phosphorus
ObjectiveWe described source and phosphorus (P) retention potential of soft, fine-grained, streambed sediment and associated phosphorus (sed-P)...

Comparison of sediment biomarker signatures generated using time-integrated and discrete suspended sediment samples
Sediment source fingerprinting using biomarker properties has led to new insights in our understanding of land use contributions to time-integrated...

The Influence of CSBT on the Release of Pollutants from Sediment
Sediment particles widely exist in natural waters, and have an important impact on complex physico-chemical processes. The electrochemical properties... -
Rapid shifts in pond sediment microbiota in response to high ambient temperature in a water–sediment microcosm
Unlike the extensive research on the response of soil microorganisms to high ambient temperature (HTA), the response of sediment microorganisms to...
