streamlab experiments a success, more to come

The first phase of StreamLab experiments on ground-truth testing of various bedload monitoring technologies have concluded with great success, and the Main Channel is gearing up for phase two: interplay of geomorphology and ecology, to study the interactions between gravel transport and storage, bed armoring and size sorting, hyporheic exchange, and nutrient and periphyton behavior.
