Abstract
The chemical composition of river water is influenced by both the lith ology of the basins drained by the river and anthropogenic influences (villages, salting of roads, agriculture, atmospheric pollution, etc.) along its banks. The fluxes of chemical elements were studied along a river Valley stretching W-E from the headwaters of the various afflue nts to the outlet of the river. Strontium isotope differences enabled identification of potential sources (rocks, atmosphere, pollution).
