Abstract | Double radionuclide tracers of Cs-137 and Pb-210 were used to investigate sediment sources in the Wujia Gully, a small catchment in the Hilly Sichuan Basin in 2002. Average Cs-137 and Pb-210 concentrations in the source soils of the steep forest slopes, gentle cultivated terraces and bare slopes were 7.15 Bq(.)kg(-1) 0.40 Bq(.)kg(-1) and 162.01 Bq(.)kg(-1) +/- 3.86 Bq(.)kg(-1), 4.01 Bq(.)kg(-1) +/- 0.31 Bq(.)kg(-1) and 70.96 Bq(.)kg(-1) +/- 2.65 Bq(.)kg(-1), and 0 and 15.12 Bq(.)kg(-1) +/- 1.22 Bq(.)kg(-1), respectively, while those concentrations in the recently deposited sediments in the reservoir were 3.06 Bq(.)kg(-1) +/- 0.23 Bq(.)kg(-1) and 72.66 Bq(.)kg(-1) +/- 1.61 Bq(.)kg(-1), respectively. By using the mixing model, the relative sediment contributions from steep forest slopes, gentle cultivated terraces and bare slopes (including channel banks) were estimated to be 18%, 46% and 36%, respectively. Cultivated terraces and bare slopes (including channel banks) were the first and the second important sediment sources in catchment. Specific sediment yield in the catchment was 642 t(.)km(-2.)a(-1) from the deposited sediment volume in the reservoir since 1956. Soil erosion rates for the forest slopes and cultivated terraces, which accounted for 2/3 and 1/3 of the drainage area in the catchment, were estimated to be 173 t(.)km(-2.)a(-1) and 886 t(.)km(-2.)a(-1), respectively. |
