Description :
As part of the environmental studies carried out the input and the occurence of heavy metals in the Meuse River floodplain has been investigated. One of the aims of this investigation was to establish the relation between floodplain morphology, rate of sedimentation and soil pollution. It appears that mapping from soil-pollution susceptible areas in a fluviatile environment can be carried out fast and accurately by application of classical geomorphological and pedological field techniques.
