Description
Scope/Content: Abstract: This study was conducted to determine stored sediment volume and size distribution behind artificial barriers to flow in the lower drainage of Solstice Creek in preparation for removal of those barriers. Additionally, using flood frequency discharge estimates from Klein et al., 2002, flood stage heights and potential sediment flux were estimated for 5 and 25 year flood intervals.
