Contamination history of suspended river sediments accumulated in oxbow lakes over the last 25 years (Morava River, Danube catchment area), Czech Republic

Original language description

Background, Aims and Scope. Embankment of meandering river systems in many industrial areas results in formation of artificial oxbow lakes that may act as perennial or intermittent traps for river sediments. Their deposits can be dated using a combination of historical and stratigraphic data, providing a good means to study historical records of contamination transported by rivers. Contamination history over the last few decades is of special significance for Central and Eastern Europe as it can reflecthigh pollutant levels in the second half of the 20th century and the subsequent improvement after the fall of the Iron Curtain. The purpose of this study was to investigate recent sediments of an oxbow lake of the Morava River, Czech Republic, their stratigraphic records, sediment architecture and history of contamination. Materials and Methods. Seven ground penetrating radar (GPR) profiles and three sediment cores up to four m deep were studied. Stratigraphy of the cores was inferred f
