Abstract

Radiogenic isotopes have been widely used to assess an extensive range of geological processes. In this chapter, we focus on the use of three radiogenic isotope systems (Sr, Nd, and Pb) to determine the source of sediment and sediment-associated contaminants in riverine environments. We begin by examining the past and continuing use of Sr and Nd isotopes to determine the provenance of sediment at large spatial scales before exploring their potential use to track anthropogenically contaminated sediment at much smaller (local to regional) spatial scales. We then turn our attention to the use of Pb isotopes as a tracer of Pb contaminated sediments in riverine environments. Given the many and increasing ways in which radiogenic isotopes can be applied to environmental, geomorphic, and hydrologic issues, the discussion is not meant to be exhaustive. Rather, it is intended to provide an overview of the sorts of methodological approaches that have been used to address the sediment/contaminant source problem in riverine environments, and the strengths and weaknesses inherent in the approach.
