Research PartnershipsTahoe Science Projects supported by SNPLMAUsing Fingerprinting to Determine Sources of Highway SedimentThis study will use chemical fingerprinting to identify and map highway and road sources of fine sediment that is entering and has historically entered Lake Tahoe through stormwater runoff and streams. Fingerprinting will use a full suite of major ions and trace elements, including rare earth elements (REEs), strontium (87/86), and lead (206/207/208) isotopes. Full title: Determining sources of highway runoff fine sediment in stormwater, streams, and Lake Tahoe using fingerprinting techniques Proposal [pdf] Lead Researchers: Jim Thomas and Alan Heyvaert, Desert Research Institute Goals
