Upland and Coastal Sediment Sources in a Chesapeake Bay Estuary
Rapid sedimentation in the upper and central portions of tributary estuaries of the Chesapeake Bay typically has been attributed to clearing of land and subsequent upland erosion since European settlement. New data from the South River, Maryland and re-examination of existing literature suggest that coastal erosion may be the dominant process driving sediment inputs along the entire length of many tributary estuaries of the Chesapeake over the pa…
Marsh Loss in Nanticoke Estuary, Chesapeake Bay
Marsh loss in the Nanticoke estuary dates from the 1920s. Since 1938 overall rate of loss has averaged 49.6 ha annually, with rates increasing down estuary. Most losses have occurred in submerged upland marshes; tidal freshwater marshes are stable. Interior ponding has been the primary mechanism of loss. Rising water levels are postulated to be the underlying force behind marsh losses in this estuary. R ECENT predictions of accelerated rates of s…
