The authors have studied environmental analysis of heavy metals in river sediment to understand the status of river pollution. In these studies, one of the most important problems is to determine the probability distribution function of each heavy metal in river sediment. Few of the studies concerned with the distribution of heavy metals have discussed the distribution function. In this paper, they discuss the distribution function of heavy metals as found in upstream and downstream sediments of first class rivers in Japan. The first class rivers were designated by the Japanese government in 1963 as important in the national land conservation and economic program.
