  35. Ajkwa River estuary and mangrove tidal channels in western Irian Jaya. Mass accumulation rates
  36. (4.5–13 kg dry wtm2 yr1) were within the envelope of expectations for a region of high rainfall, great river catchment
  37. relief, and rapid tectonic uplift of mountains. Copper accumulation rates were enhanced 40 fold in surface sediments,
  38. compared to pre-1950 sections of the sediment cores. These recent sediments with enhanced copper
  39. concentrations come from Freeport Indonesia mine tailings over the last 27 years. Variations in sediment core profiles
  40. of Al, Fe, and organic carbon were small, indicating no great change in bulk sediment composition. Sulfur
  41. concentrations decline toward the sediment surface, suggesting a decline in rates of microbial sulfate reduction.

  341. Ajkwa River estuary and mangrove tidal channels in western Irian Jaya. Mass accumulation rates&#13;
  342. (4.5–13 kg dry wtm2 yr1) were within the envelope of expectations for a region of high rainfall, great river catchment&#13;
  343. relief, and rapid tectonic uplift of mountains. Copper accumulation rates were enhanced 40 fold in surface sediments,&#13;
  344. compared to pre-1950 sections of the sediment cores. These recent sediments with enhanced copper&#13;
  345. concentrations come from Freeport Indonesia mine tailings over the last 27 years. Variations in sediment core profiles&#13;
  346. of Al, Fe, and organic carbon were small, indicating no great change in bulk sediment composition. Sulfur&#13;
  347. concentrations decline toward the sediment surface, suggesting a decline in rates of microbial sulfate reduction.&#13;
  348. Enhanced sediment copper concentrations will be a useful tracer of sediment dispersal from the Ajkwa River estuary&#13;
  349. along this coast.</p></div><table style="margin-bottom: 1em" border="0" cellpadding="3" class="not_ep_block"><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Item Type:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">Article</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Additional Information:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">The definitive version is available at http://www.sciencedirect.com&#13;
