Maine Mountain Ponds

We are investigating the
response of remote, high elevation ponds in western and northern Maine
to climate forcing. These ponds are at risk Please see our project page for more information To read about recent fieldwork, see our project blog: UMF Geology field blog |
Dynamics of the Sandy River, western Maine
 |
Beginning in 2002, we
have been monitoring sedimentation dynamics at six sites on the Sandy
River in western Maine. From 2002-2006, we conducted high-resolution
topographic surveys of the bars to determine patterns of annual change.
We transitioned this phase of the project to repeat surveys of channel
profiles every 4-5 years for long-term monitoring. With renewed interest in management and manipulation of the bars in 2011, we are using ground-penetrating radar (GPR) to determine the volume of sand stored at three of the study sites. |
