Tidal freshwater wetlands are ideal sites for nitrate retention because of their position within the landscape (near the head of tide); they receive water, discharge, nutrients (N and P), and sediment loads directly from ...

Previous studies have defined a power function between tidal prism and inlet cross sectional area for many lagoon systems. The goals of this study are to first, determine underlying processes that generate the area-prism ...

To maintain elevation, deposition of mineral and organic sediment in tidal freshwater wetlands (TFWs) must outweigh losses due to sea-level rise, erosion, decomposition, and compaction. Sediment loads into tidal marshes ...

Observing microseismic waves excited by turbulent flow is an emerging way to document river dynamics during extreme flood events. This thesis records fluvial-seismic observations in two contrasting systems at different ...

Restoring urban degraded stream channels in efforts to improve water quality often includes substantial alteration of the riparian zone which can require the removal of mature trees. This study assessed the impact of tree ...
