Time Evolution of an AMD-Affected River Chemical Makeup

Torre, M.; Grande, J.; Jiménez, A.; Borrego, J.; … - In: Water Resources Management 23 (2009) 7, pp. 1275-1289

Acid mine drainage is the main problem encountered by sulphide mining operations, not only because of its ecological aspects, but also because, once it appears, it is very difficult to remediate both technologically and economically. This paper characterises the response of an acid mine...

An Investigation of the Impacts of Agricultural Runoff on the Water Quality and Aquatic Organisms in a Lowveld Sand River System in Southeast Zimbabwe

Tafangenyasha, Clifford; Dube, Lawrence - In: Water Resources Management 22 (2008) 1, pp. 119-130

In this research we examined the hypothesis that agricultural pollution is a key determinant of variability in nutrients concentrations and benthic fauna in a semi-arid tropical lowveld region of southeast Zimbabwe. Water quality was monitored in the river water column and river bottom sediments...
