Title: input parameters Carpinteria Marsh
Post by: caroline on April 19, 2010, 05:26:06 PM
Hi,

I am running Slamm on Carpinteria Marsh near Santa Barbara. I ran it using the accretion/sed/erosion rates for Puget Sound which I would assume are much different for Carpinteria. I have searched the literature high and low but can't seem to find any rates for Carpinteria. I did find an accretion rate for Tijuana slough:  "Vertical Accretion Rates and Heavy Metal Chronologies in Weland Sediments of the Tijuana Estuary" but this area may be different that further north. I found some data for SF Bay but again that is much further north and has differerent conditions. Any ideas where I might find this info?

Thanks,

Caroline
