Cation denudation rates of rivers in Nova Scotia, 1971-1974 and 1977-1982 / by Mary E. Thompson.: En13-5/85-28E-PDF

"Cation denudation rates for 11 rivers in Nova Scotia are compared for two periods, 1971-1974 and 1977-1982. Deposition rates of sulfate are presumed to have been lower during the latter period because the excesss sulfate yields of the rivers have decreased. ... It is concluded that, within the limits of the data available, there is little difference in the mean discharge-weighted sum of cation for the two time periods. The cation denudation rates, therefore, vary only as a function of runoff"--Abstract.
