Suspended sediment concentrations from water samples collected from the shallows and a tidal creek of Northern San Francisco Bay, California, 2022-2023
Water samples were collected in San Pablo Bay, Corte Madera Bay, and a tidal creek in Corte Madera Marsh between April 2022 and June 2023 to measure suspended-sediment concentrations and percent carbon of suspended sediment. The water samples were collected near the USGS instrument platforms (see time-series data page) with a peristaltic pump, via a Niskin sampler, or directly with a sample bottle. |

Profiles of salinity, temperature, depth, turbidity, and distributions of particle size in suspension collected during four 0.25-day periods in south San Francisco Bay, California, summer 2020
Profiles of salinity, temperature, turbidity, and particle size distribution were collected by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Pacific Coastal and Marine Science Center at two locations in south San Francisco Bay. Data were collected at depth intervals ranging between 0.5 and 2 m (depending on total water depth); sensors remained at each depth for 1 minute. Each profile was collected from surface to bed, and the near-surface region was sampled again at the end of the profile to check steady-state ... |

Suspended-sediment concentration and grain size in the San Lorenzo River, coastal California
Water samples were collected from the San Lorenzo River, Santa Cruz, California, and analyzed for suspended-sediment concentration and sand break (proportion of sand vs. silt-plus-clay) at the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) laboratory in Santa Cruz, California. The samples were all single-vertical samples collected from the thalweg of the river, using a D-95 sampler deployed from a bridge box at a pedestrian bridge across the river in downtown Santa Cruz. All samples were collected from that location: 36 ... |
