The book delves into sediment geochemical characterization as a vital method for understanding paleoenvironmental conditions and sediment provenance. Utilizing X-ray fluorescence spectrometry, it analyzes sands and river sediments from 51 stations, revealing environmental changes over time by comparing historical datasets. The study identifies three primary sediment sources: Po, Apennine, and dolomitic rocks from the Eastern Alps, providing insights into the area's geological history and contamination status.
