The Sr/Ba ratio response to salinity in clastic sediments of the Yangtze River Delta

Aihua Wang et al.

Summary: The Sr/Ba ratio is a geochemical indicator used to distinguish between terrestrial and marine sedimentary environments, but its usability is not widely acknowledged due to inconsistent conclusions drawn from other sedimentary environment indicators. Selective extraction of sedimentogenic Sr and Ba is the most effective means of using the Sr/Ba ratio to discriminate between marine and terrestrial sedimentary environments in terrigenous clastic sediments.

Environmental geochemical characteristics and the provenance of sediments in the catchment of lower reach of Yarlung Tsangpo River, southeast Tibetan Plateau

Wenfang Zhang et al.

Summary: Loess-like deposits and soils are extensively distributed in the Yarlung Tsangpo River catchment in southern Tibetan Plateau. Sediments are mainly sourced from local felsic bedrocks, with varying levels of heavy metals such as arsenic, lead and cesium depending on climate conditions. The current relatively wet and warm climate has only led to incipient chemical weathering of surface sediments in the lower reach of the river.
