| Creator | Belmont, Patrick Viparelli, E. Lauer, J. W. Day, S. S. |
| Description | We have developed a sediment budget and routing model for the Le Sueur River, southern Minnesota. An integral component of the model considers the sediment storage and erosion dynamics of the coupled channel-floodplain system. The Le Sueur River system can be broken down into two reaches that are separated by a knickpoint that has been propagating upstream over the past 11,500 years. The upper reach is approximately 120 km long and characterized as low-gradient (slope = 0.0004 m/m) and gently... |
