Description | Study of sediment sources in watershed. Data were collected on streamflow, sediment discharge, and erosion sources from 1986-1989. Questa evaluated the main sources of sediment and compared their results to earlier studies of Olema Creek, as well as regional studies from similar watersheds. Sediment data were collected primarily during storm events at established monitoring sites. Depth-integrated suspended sediment samples were obtained using a hand-held modified DH-48. Bedload samples were collected using a modified Helley-Smith pressure-differential sampler. Total sediment discharge was collected at tributaries using grab samples and a wide-mouth 1-litre plastic sample bottle. The mass wasting assessment utilized aerial photo analysis and field reconnaissance. |
