As part of the course Environmental Geology GVK430 (2016) within the Master's Programme in Earth Sciences at the University of Gothenburg, we created this website.

 

Our aim is to present and share our analysis and revision of a particular example from the available bibliography dealing with sediment parameters and what can they tell us about the provenance, composition and weathering of the sediments.

 

In this case, we have selected the Yangtze River —the longest river in Asia— and the information and data here provided were obtained from scientific papers and reports (see References for the detailed list).
