| Title: | CHANGES IN A STREAM BED FROM CHANGES IN LAND USE |
| Caption: | Cross section of a stream at the Mauldin Millsite, Georgia, in 1969 showing changes in channel position through time. Land use changed from natural forest to agriculture, which increased stream sedimentation until 1930, and then back to woodland, which increased stream erosion. (After Trimble, S. W. 1969. Culturally accelerated sedimentation on the middle Georgia Piedmont. Master's thesis, Athens, Georgia: University of Georgia. Reproduced by permission) |
