Resumen
A literature survey has been undertaken of the sources, levels and effects of heavy metal pollution in the urban street environment. Established techniques for the determination of heavy metal levels in urban dusts have been reviewed, and appropriate methods selected for use in the research project. Spatial and temporal variations of Cd, Cu, Pb and Zn in street dust have been investigated at a number sites. Metal loadings showed stronger spatial variation than concentrations with the greatest metal loadings occurring in the gutters and kerbsides. The results have been assessed in terms of surf

Resumen
<p>Agricultural land use near streams frequently results in long-term disturbance to woody riparian vegetation and an alteration of reach scale geomorphic structure. Such disturbances often result in increased fine sediment input to the stream along with direct changes in channel structure.

Resumen
Ephemeral stream channels may be modified considerably by aggradation, degradation or lateral migration. Computer programs utilizing a variety of sediment-discharge equations have been developed to predict these changes. The equation of Laursen was examined in this study. Suspended and bed load samples were collected from the Santa Cruz River during 12 flow events. Sediment compositions from the dry wash were used in the Laursen equation to predict that data. Sampled suspended load plotted as a scatter band, but the variation could be explained by slight changes in the bed material composition

Accurately predicting sediment delivery has been a long-standing problem in the field of water resource management.

Bed load transport measurements were made in a small urban stream in Decatur, GA, from which thresholds for motion were calculated using methodologies from the published literature. These methodologies are discussed in terms of their limitations and assumptions. Mobility frequencies were calculated for single grains of each grain size fraction to illustrate the transition from size selective transport to equal mobility. In general, urban streams behave differently than many gravel rivers in non-urban settings because of differences in the availability and character of sediment sources and alt

Urbanization, often characterized by high impervious surface area, can result in excessive inputs of fine sediments into urban streams.

The influence of channel morphology and hydraulics on sediment transport within steep upland streams is investigated. Step-pools are the most common bedform in such streams. Bedload transport processes operating in a perennial step-pool stream in central England are established using magnetically-tagged particles and bedload pit samplers. Water-surface slope in two step-pool streams is monitored in detail. Water-surface slope measurements show that step-pool bedforms cause large spatial variations in flow depth during floods, and that the temporal variation of watersurface slope during a flood
