Abstract:
This dataset contains sedimentation data that was collected for the Congaree River floodplain, SC, USA. The study sites were located at floodplain positions with varying flood frequencies and geomorphic positions. Flood frequency was determined using hydrological statistics based on data acquired from USGS gage #02169500 for the Congaree River; sites are classified as having high, intermediate, or low flood frequency. The geomorphic position classification was determined using field observations; sites are classified as abandoned channel, ridge, river margin, and swale positions. Sediment deposition was measured in centimeters and reflects the amount of sediment that was deposited on a feldspar clay pad that was installed at each of the sampling sites. The feldspar pads were installed in the summer of 2012 and cored and measured for deposition amounts in the summer of 2014. In the summer of 2012, soil samples were collected at each of the sampling sites. Each soil sample was analyzed for soil texture (percent sand, silt, and clay), major and micro-nutrients (parts per million), percent organic matter, and pH.
