Field Activity K207PS

Identifier K207PS
Alternate names K-2-07-PS
Also known as K0207PS
Purpose Investigate spatial variation in waves, influence of eelgrass on wave velocities, and response of eelgrass to waves. Investigate relative importance of waves and tidal currents to sediment resuspension near Possession Point.
