This paper examines the conservativeness of tracers through the sediment generation process. This is done by comparing a selection of tracer properties of sediment eroded from large plots by simulated rainfall, with the corresponding properties of the source materials within the plots. Sediment was
A straight benthic in situ flume was used to measure the erosion rate of cohesive sediments in freshwater and saltwater environments in New Zealand. The data show an exponential decay of erosion rate with time, which is indicative of depthlimited erosion. Two approaches for the calibration of an ero
