Activity	Equipment
2018-332-FA	Net Sedimentation Tile A Net Sedimentation Tile (NST) is a simple, inexpensive field instrument used to measure short-term sediment deposition on marsh or wetland surfaces. It consists of a flat ceramic tile installed flush with the marsh surface, allowing sediment to accumulate naturally over time. Scientists periodically retrieve and analyze the sediment deposited on the tile to calculate sedimentation rates.
2018-358-FA	Net Sedimentation Tile A Net Sedimentation Tile (NST) is a simple, inexpensive field instrument used to measure short-term sediment deposition on marsh or wetland surfaces. It consists of a flat ceramic tile installed flush with the marsh surface, allowing sediment to accumulate naturally over time. Scientists periodically retrieve and analyze the sediment deposited on the tile to calculate sedimentation rates.
