Compound-specific isotope analysis with nested sampling approach detects spatial and temporal variability in the sources of suspended sediments in a Scottish mesoscale catchment

Pranav Hirave et al.

Summary: The study demonstrated the successful use of compound-specific isotope analysis of vegetation biomarkers to trace suspended sediment sources, revealing that permanent grassland is a major contributor while arable land contributes more in lowland areas. Forest and heather moorland have minimal impact on suspended sediments, and the seasonal variation in sediment sources is linked to rainfall and agronomic activities.
