PSAMP Long-term Sediment Monitoring
PSAMP Long-term Sediment Monitoring As part of the Puget Sound Ambient Monitoring Program (PSAMP), the Washington State Department of Ecology sampled sediments at ten fixed stations each spring from 1989 through 2000 (Figure 1). Stations were chosen from a variety of habitats and geographic locations in Puget Sound. Sediments from each station were analyzed for particle size, organic carbon con...
متن کاملPiecewise SALT Sampling for Estimating Suspended Sediment Yields
A probability sampling method called SALT (Selection At List 'Time) has been developed for collecting and summarizing data on delivery of suspended sediment in rivers. It is based on sampling and estimating yield using a suspended-sediment rating curve for high discharges and simple random sampling for low flows. The method gives unbiased estimates of total yield and variance. The technique has...
متن کاملMeasuring sediment yields of storms using PSALT
Storm yields of water and sediment are being measured as part of a study of the effects of roading, logging, and burning in a second-growth redwood forest in northern California. Two primary basins, each about 500 ha, and 13 sub-basins in one of them are measured for sediment flux and the presence and magnitude of sediment-based “cumulative effects”. Study objectives require a more sophisticate...
متن کاملLong Range Sediment Tomography
A scheme for the estimation of compressional wave speed and attenuation has been developed using broadband explosive sources. Sediment compressional speeds were estimated using hybrid methods based on the modal dispersion behavior of broadband acoustic propagation. In this hybrid scheme, we have used Genetic Algorithm (GA) as the main search tool. Local optimization tools were used to finetune ...
متن کاملEstimating fluvial sediment transport: The rating parameters
Correlations between suspended sediment load rating parameters, river basin morphology, and climate provide information about the physical controls on the sediment load in rivers and are used to create predictive equations for the sediment rating parameters. Long-term time-averaged values of discharge, suspended load, flow duration, flow peakedness, and temporally averaged values of precipitati...
