Abstract
We use quantitative provenance analysis (geochemical analysis; high-resolution bulkpetrography and heavy-mineral analysis, exploratory compositional data analysis and Aitchison distance) on present-day river sediments of the Changjiang (Yangtze) River toquantify the contributions of each tributary to the Changjiang River Delta, and thus to evaluate sediment provenance in the distinct parts of the drainage basin.
