Description :
The AA. use a variety of data, including 52 paired analyses of in-situ produced Be 10 and Al 26 measured in quartz extracted from alluvial sediment and arroyo wall samples, to better understand patterns and rates of erosion in the 16 153 km2 drainage network of Rio Puerco Basin, northern New Mexico.
