Stream Channel: Cross-Sections - Garcia at Kendall Lower-2, 1991-1998 |
|
Caption: This chart shows Garcia River cross-section surveys conducted at the Lower Kendall-2 cross-section, located on the Kendall property, between 1991 and 1998. The 1997 survey shows aggradation of the channel and erosion of and the point bar. The 1997 changes are possibly attributed to large storm events in 1995 and 1997 that reportedly caused large areas of bank erosion upstream of the cross-section. Erosional problems may also have been exacerbated by heavy equipment operation in the channel nearby (Jackson 1997). More aggradation occurred by 1998 and the point bar eroded creating a mid-channel bar. Data are from Mendocino County Water Agency. See InfoLinks for more information.
