1 Factors influencing nutrient and sediment retention by riverine wetlands in the Chesapeake watershed Greg Noe, Cliff Hupp, Ed Schenk, Nancy Rybicki National Research Program, Reston VA U.S. Department of the Interior U.S. Geological Survey Funded by USGS Chesapeake Priority Ecosystem Science
2 Floodplain nutrient and sediment retention Floodplains are last location in watersheds for significant material retention before river loading into coastal waters What are nutrient cycling and sediment deposition rates? What are the controls? What is the percent retention of river loads by floodplains?
3 Hydrogeomorphic controls in floodplain ecosystems Four dimensions of river corridors influence floodplain ecosystem processes through river-floodplain hydrologic connectivity This heterogeneity is critical to the prediction and scaling of floodplain effects on water quality Noe Treatise of Geomorphology. Modified from NRC 2002.
