Riparian forest potential to retain sediment and carbon evaluated by the 137 Cs fallout and carbon isotopic ratio techniques

Riparian forests can provide an important service for aquatic ecosystems by sequestering hillslope-derived sediments. However, the width of a riparian buffer zone required to filter sediments is not yet well-understood. Here are used twocomplementary tracers to measure sediment retention. The 137Cs...
