The Role of Leaf Litter and Small Wood in the Retention of Fine Particles During Storms in an Appalachian Headwater Stream
Streams are constantly subject to downstream movement of materials. The role of fallen leaves in resisting downstream transport of particulates is largely unquantified. The litter exclusion study at Coweeta presented the opportunity to study a stream without litter input. I expected removal of leaf...
