Sources, transport, and trends for selected trace metals and nutrients in the Coeur d'Alene and Spokane River Basins, Idaho, 1990-2013

“…The increase in particulate concentrations of cadmium, lead, and zinc between the SFCDR near Cataldo (site 14) and the SFCDR near Harrison (site 15) probably is attributable to increased mobilization of stored sediment and associated trace metals from the flood plain and in the river channel. Previous studies have documented large increases in suspended sediment and bedload in the lower reaches of the CDR downstream of Cataldo (Clark and Woods, 2000), especially during rain-on-snow events and during spring snowmelt runoff. Mobilization of sediment and associated trace metals probably also is responsible for the apparent increase in the streamflow-weighted concentrations of dissolved cadmium, lead, and zinc in the lower CDR.…”

Concentrations and loads of cadmium, zinc, and lead in the main stem Coeur d'Alene River, Idaho—March, June, September, and October 1999

“…Therefore, the majority of the WWR lead load was transported in association with suspended sediment. On the basis of a study reported by Clark and Woods (2001), the majority of suspended sediment in transport within the main stem Coeur d'Alene River was as fine-grained particles (<63 µ m diameter) at discharges less than 15,000 ft 3 /s. The particle size of sediment carried as bedload at the Rose Lake gaging station was dominated by finegrained sediments less than 1 mm in diameter; an absence of bedload transport was measured at the Harrison gaging station (Clark and Woods, 2001).…”
