✦ Synopsis

Carpet-forming bryophytes (mosses) have been used extensively since the late 1960's in assessing regional and temporal variability of atmospheric heavy-metal deposition. A large-scale decrease in heavymetal deposition occurred during the 1970's in Sweden, probably also in other parts of northern Europe. The decrease was closely related to known changes in atmospheric emissions.

## Abstract Based on the hydrographical and geological conditions of the river Saale catchment area, the regional geogenic background values are given for heavy metals in fluviatile sediments. They serve as a yardstick for evaluating the current sediment load of the Saale. Compared with the data fr
