Rapid Geomorphic Assessment of Little Flatrock Creek Stream Network, Ohio, 2019

Description

The Maumee River network contributes a significant amount of total phosphorus (P), including both sediment-bound P (sed-P) and dissolved P, to the Western Lake Erie Basin. Most Maumee River headwater streams are agricultural, with conservation management focused on limiting sediment and nutrient transport from cropland to the stream network. However, several studies have shown streambank erosion to be another source of suspended sediment in these streams. This data release is comprised of six tables with data related to channel geometry, streambed sediment, and streambank erosion in the Little Flatrock Creek stream network in 2019. Data included provided for extrapolation from 15 described reaches to the entire network upstream of the gage (U.S. Geological Survey site ID 04191444).
