Learn more about the research being done at the SAFL StreamLabs: Indoor StreamLab, Outdoor StreamLab, and Virtual StreamLab.

Indoor StreamLab
The StreamLab06 project was a coordinated, collaborative series of mobile bed experiments utilizing SAFL’s Main Channel facility. Experiments were organized under two main themes:

I. Sediment Transport Monitoring Technologies - testing conventional and surrogate technologies for sampling the transport rate of sand and gravel.

II. Ecogeomorphology Research - exploring interactions of gravel transport and storage, surface size sorting, bed armoring and flushing, hyporheic exchange, nutrient uptake, and periphyton growth, and how they vary as a function of bed topography and the presence of fine sediment in the interstices.
