| Description | We assessed the transport of granitic bedload sediment (<6.35 mm diameter) in streams flowing through central Idaho mountain valleys and the effects of the sediment on juvenile salmonids and aquatic insects. We measured bedload sediment transported in the streams during the spring snowmelt runoff and the summer lowflow periods for 2 years, to test the applicability of the Meyer-Peter, MUller equation for estimating such transport. In both years the streams transported all the sediment... |
