In addition, we have also conducted floodplain sedimentation and stratigraphy studies, surveys of geomorphic distribution of legacy contaminants in impoundments, sediment budgets, and sediment source studies."

     "text": "Fluvial geomorphology studies provide an understanding of the physical processes responsible for shaping the character of streams and their riparian zones across both glaciated and unglaciated regions of Wisconsin and the midwestern U.S. These studies usually involve stream assessment and monitoring components that range of spatial scales from a particular reach to entire watersheds. Time scales may range from a couple of years to more than several hundred years."
