On the geochemistry of uranium in channel sediments of the hydrosystem of mountain taiga area
Authors:
Abstract
The studied areas of mountain-taiga terrain are developed mainly by igneous rocks of the granitoid series. All sites are located in a typically humid zone. The valleys of rivers and streams are forested, often swampy; stream channel sediments contain an abundance of organic matter in the form of fallen leaves, needles, etc. The relief is medium-mountain, but rather strongly dissected. Exposure is poor; eluvial‑deluvial deposits are of medium‑clastic character with a small (up to 20 cm) soil layer. The thickness of loose formations usually does not exceed 2‑3 m. Flat tops are often swampy.
