Data Set Name | sediment_sources_masswasting.dbf |
Purpose | Prepare a preliminary sediment budget of the Garcia River Watershed to assist the US Environmental Protection Agency in establishing Total Maximum Daily Load standards. |
Data Quality Information | Good Level I reconnaissance, but little field checking allowed due to budget and time constraints. |
Use Constraints | PWA (1997) notes that sediment estimates are minimum values and that their analysis should be considered preliminary. |
Supplemental Information | Report assesses past sediment production and delivery by erosional process, identifies data gaps, and makes recommendations for reducing sediment production. The report covers 1952 to 1997. |
Keywords | sediment, sediment budget, mass wasting, erosion, geomorphology |
