Updated 10/12/07.

 

- Mapping bedrock, surficial and subsurface glacial deposits, floodplains and fluvial terraces

- Side-scanning LIDAR on eroding banks and bluffs

- Sampling for cosmogenic isotopes (10Be and 26Al) and other chemical tracers that can be used for sediment fingerprinting

- Quantifying grain size distributions in the uplands, bluffs, floodplains, and active river channels

- Establishing gauging stations to monitor real-time water flow and sediment load in the river channels and ravines
