Project Overview
The project will develop a web application that provides suspended sediment concentration, sediment bedload, and annual total sediment load estimates to characterize the sediment load to Minnesota's rivers. This will be accomplished using a machine learning model developed from previously collected data. The results will help Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) staff evaluate Hydrological Simulation Program – FORTRAN (HSPF) models and will assist in stressor identification.
