Surface water hydrology (GEOS 4650/6650) went out to Tanyard Creek this week to see in person the many things we've been talking about in class. They got to explore a creek that goes from a culverted headwaters, to a second with sediment supply>transport capacity, that then flows into a bedrock section! Cross sectional measurements and basis water quality were measured, along with visual observations of how the morphology forms change with distance. And we got to confuse many people biking and running on the Beltway by being in the stream.
