Article Synopsis
- Sediment pulses significantly alter river and coastal landscapes, but measuring these changes has been challenging due to their unpredictable nature.
- The removal of two large dams on the Elwha River provided a unique opportunity to study the effects of a large sediment influx, with about 30 million tons of sediment released for observation.
- Over five years, nearly 65% of this sediment was eroded, influencing river channel morphology and contributing to the growth of the delta by approximately 60 hectares, with geomorphic changes peaking one to two years post-dam removal.
