| Abstract |
Geochemical and hydrologic studies were conducted on parts of the Arkansas River and its flood plain downstream from Leadville, Colorado, to assess the effects of fluvial tailings deposits on soil and water quality, to identify processes causing water-quality degradation, and to identify implications of these results for remediation strategies. |
