Estimating combined loads of diffuse and point-source pollutants into the Borkena River, Ethiopia

This book is an initial attempt to estimate the loads of heavy metal and nutrient loads into an industrial effluent receiving rivers of a typical industrializing catchment. It shows the effects and impacts of diffuse and point sources of these loads into the rivers, and illuminate management, capaci...
