Abstract:Recent implementation of the EU Water Framework Directive necessitates addressing water quality issues at the catchment scale. In this study, contaminant loading of all point discharges have been measured, establishing the overall impact of mine waters within the catchments, and allowing the derivation of contributions of diffuse mine water pollution to these totals. The results of two ongoing case studies of mine-impacted river catchments in the northeast of England are presented. The Allen catchment, Northum… Show more
