THE CRS 210Pb CHRONOLOGICAL METHOD APPLIED TO SEDIMENT CORES FROM PARDO RIVER, SÃO PAULO STATE, BRAZIL
Abstract
Abstract - 210Pbis a natural radionuclide extensively utilized for the geochronology of sediment cores in environmental studies. In this study, the Constant Rate of Supply (CRS) model has been utilized in order to analyze bottom sediments from Pardo River, São Paulo State, Brazil. Sediment profiles from six monitoring points located along the channel drainage were sampled and analyzed, yielding a relevant dataset for further studies in that important hydrological resource extensively used in water-supply systems.
