Area Lagunitas Creek
Topic Sediment: Bed Surface Composition - D50, Summary 1995-2000
 
Caption:  This chart shows the average of median bed surface particle size (D50) from Wolman pebble counts in Lagunitas Creek from 1995 through 2000. Generally, the median bed surface particle size decreases downstream. The higher surface particle size in the Big Bend monitoring site may be as a result of coarse sediment contributions from Devils Gulch, which joins Lagunitas Creek just upstream, although channel confinement and gradient at that location may also play a role. Data were collected at monitoring sites annually by Balance Hydrologics, Inc. for the Marin Municipal Water District. Monitoring sites are listed upstream to downstream.
