STUDY AREA

OBJECTIVES

Monitoring of hydrological connectivity

Estimation of the sedimentation rate

Determination of the sediment character (granulometry etc.)

I. HYDROLOGICAL CONNECTIVITY

I. HYDROLOGICAL CONNECTIVITY

II. SEDIMENTATION RATE: ERT

II. SEDIMENTATION RATE: DIGITAL TERRAIN MODEL

II. SEDIMENTATION RATE: DIGITAL TERRAIN MODEL

II. SEDIMENTATION RATE: DIGITAL TERRAIN MODEL - LIMITATIONS

III. SEDIMENTS

Sediment samplesCross-sections: distance 50 m (= channel width)

Sediments were sampled every 10 meters at every cross-section. Granulometryanalyzed to asses grain size variability in the meander.
