To quantify critical sediment transport parameters of diverse wetland complexes within 4 NCBN parks, Cape Cod NS, Fire Island NS, Gateway NRA and Assateague Island NS in order to inform management efforts. Suspended-sediment concentration data over tidal and seasonal timescales and will directly inform and improve the predications developed as part of the marsh modeling effort for these parks.
Equipment or personnel only. Data, if any, are managed under a different field activity.
Location
Jamaica Bay, NY and Great South Bay, NY
Info derived
Tides, currents, waves, water-quality parameters, and time-lapse imagery from deployed time series measurements. Water samples will be collected for suspended sediment concentration, and volatile solids. Recover all time series instruments deployed in Great South Bay as part of this study.
Comments
Field work to collect water samples and recover all time series instruments deployed in Great South Bay as part of this study. Data collected for this study will be associated with field activity (2017-045-FA) from initial deployment of the time series instruments in August 2017.
