| Title | Closure of sediment budgets: tractable task or elusive goal? |
| Creator | Wheaton, Joseph M. |
| Description | Closure of a sediment mass balance - successfully resolving the difference between inputs and outputs with measured changes in storage - is a frequently touted goal of fluvial sediment budgeting, but is rarely achieved. In the rare case when all components of the mass balance are measured, inherent imprecision and uncertainties in measurement techniques often result in budgets that are indeterminate. Here, we present the results of a sediment mass balance that was developed for a discrete... |
