Concept explainers

Sediment transport

Sediment transport or Soil transport is the movement of solid particles, usually due to the combination of gravitational forces acting on the sediment, and the movement of the liquid at which the sediment enters. Soil erosion occurs in natural systems where the particles are sandstones (sand, rocks), mud, or clay; the liquid is air, water, or ice; and the gravitational force that works to move particles to the landing surface. Sediment transportation or soil migration due to the movement of liquids occurs in rivers, lakes, lakes, oceans, and other bodies of water as a result of currents and waves. Transportation is also caused by glaciers as they flow, and to places on earth under the influence of wind. Soil erosion due to gravity alone is possible in most sloping areas, including hills, scarves, cliffs, and the continental shelf — the continental boundary of the slope.

Stop D: The High Level LRT bridge section (UTM 333280 5934116, NAD 83) Immediately west of the LRT bridge is an small cliff in which are displayed 6-7 m of fine-grained sediment that shows almost horizontal layers, believed to have formed in the last 8000 years. The exposure is parallel to the river, and is preserved from erosion and is accessible because and engineered berm has been constructed between the section and the river. At the top of the section one can see the remnants of a brickyard that operated at the site between 1898 and 1913. A huge flood destroyed the yard in 1915, giving a good impression of the magnitude of peak historic flooding and flows. Within the lower third of the cliff there is a conspicuous whitish layer, and several brown to red layers. Grains in the whitish layer have been dated using isotopes to between 7584- 7682 years before present. This age coincides with the eruption of Mount Mazama, a huge volcano that existed on the site of Crater Lake, Oregon.…
