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
ADCP transects at JoCo site to be used for discharge estimates using velocity index method. Water samples will be collected for suspended sediment concentration, volatile solids, and stable isotope analysis.
Comments
ADCP transects for discharge estimates and water samples for SSC/LOI and Stable Isotope will be collected. All data collected for this FA will be associated with 2017-045-FA, the first data collection deployment for this study in August 2017.
