KRIS E. Marin Sonoma: Meta Information Page
This page contains detailed information about a data set in KRIS, including where the original data reside and how to contact the sources for the data. Data sets are linked to the appropriate page by means of the Meta Identifier. Many data sets can be linked to same page by sharing the same Meta Identifier.
Meta Identifier | FCMCW_sed |
Type of Data | Sediment |
Originator | Stetson Engineers Inc. |
Description | The geomorphic assessment estimates bedload sediment yield from ten major Corte Madera Creek subwatersheds and quantifies sediment contribution by channel bed and bank erosion in the alluvial zone. |

Maint. and Update Freq. | One-time |
Purpose | To estimate the amount and sources of sediment inflow at Ross. |
Data Quality Information | Good, however methods are not clearly defined for bulk subsurface sediment sampling. |
Supplemental Information | The study uses the Parker-Klingeman bedload transport model to estimate bedload sediment yield. In addition, Parker-Klingeman shear values were substituted with USFS shear values to provide a range of estimated values. |
