Estimation of sedimentation rates based on the excess of radium 228 in granitic reservoir sediments

Original language description

Knowledge of sedimentation rates in lakes is required to understand and quantify the geochemical processes involved in scavenging and remobilization of contaminants at the Sediment-Water Interface (SWI). The well-known Pb-210 excess (Pb-210(ex)) method cannot be used for quantifying sedimentation rates in uranium-enriched catchments, as large amounts of Pb-210 produced by weathering and human activities may dilute the atmospheric Pb-210. As an alternative dating method in these cases, we propose an original method based on Th-232 decay series nuclides.
