| Abstract | In view of the many difficulties associated with the determination of the source of suspended sediment transported by a stream, the 'fingerprinting' technique which employs sediment properties to identify the source offers considerable potential. Several limitations of the technique must, however, be recognised. Results of applying this approach to identifying sediment sources within a small agricultural drainage basin in Devon UK are reported. A variety of sediment properties have been employed in order to test the consistency of the results obtained and a simple mixing model has been used to quantify the relative importance of the contributions from surface soil and channel banks. |
