The geological significance of cosmogenic nuclides in large lowland river basins

Measured from a bag of sand taken in large rivers, the concentration of cosmogenic nuclides such as in situ-produced 10Be, 26Al, and 14C can be used to constrain the mean sediment flux of the headwaters and assess the duration of sediment storage from source to sink. We revisit these principles, wit...
