Stream Channel Stability. Appendix F. Goodwin Creek: Catchment, Data Collection and Data Management,
Abstract
A research watershed was selected and instrumented as part of the cooperative study on streambank stability. This appendix describes the selection process, the watershed, the instrumentation, and the data collection and processing. The watershed selected is Goodwin Creek in southeast Panola County, MIssissippi; it is a mixed land use watershed of about 8-3/4 square miles with a variety of sediment source areas. Goodwin Creek soils, geology, climate, geomorphic features, and land use are described along with the general character of the watershed. Instrumentation has been installed on 14 streamflow sites, at a large farm pond, at several small unit-source watersheds, and at a climatological data measuring station. The rationale for the location of sites is given; the field operation is described; and the data processing and management are discussed. (Author)
