Sediment Sampling
Stillwaters collects sediment samples collected from either side of the South Kingston Bridge to document the movement of sediment in the estuary system since culvert removals. Samples are sifted through different sized sieves and particles of different sizes are quantified (e.g., silt, fine sand, cobble, etc.). Thanks to hours of volunteer efforts, we have 10 years of data tracking sediment changes in the estuary following the 2021 culvert removal.
