Evaluation of Grain size, Amorphous Fe-Mn Oxides, and Chemical Weathering Effects on Geochemical Identification of the Yangtze River and Yellow River Sediments

The data of grain size of the Yangtze River and Yellow River sediments are given in ds01.xls. Trace and REEs in the HCl- and AC-residual size-differentiated components of the Yangtze River and Yellow River sediments are given in ds02.xls. Major elements in the AC-residual <5 µm fractions of the Yangtze River and Yellow River sediments are given in ds03.xls. Major, trace, and REEs in the HCl- and AC-leachable fractions of the Yangtze River and Yellow River sediments are given in ds04.xls.
