Identification_Information: SMMS_Type: 1 Citation: Citation_Information: Title: Columbia River Littoral Cell Beach Surface Sediment Samples, 1997-2005 SMMS_Citation_Linkages_Hyperlinked: false Description: Abstract: Beach surface level sediment samples are collected at up to 49 locations on beach profiles located along the Columbia River littoral cell on a annual basis. The data collected through this effort represents the first regional scale beach morphology monitoring program for the Columbia River littoral cell in the Pacific Northwest USA. Purpose: Beach surface sediment samples are being collected as a component of the beach morphology monitoring program of the Southwest Washington Coastal Erosion Study. The primary goals of the monitoring program are to 1) quantify the short-medium term (event-seasonal-interannual) beach change rates and morphologic variability along the Columbia River littoral cell, 2) collect beach state parameter (grain size, beach slope, dune height) data to enhance the conceptual understanding of the CRLC functioning and refine predictions of future coastal change, 3) compare and contrast the scales of environmental forcing and beach change with other coastlines of the world, and 4) provide relevant beach change data in an appropriate format to coastal decision-makers.

SMMS_Dataset_Capture_Browse: false Data_Quality_Information: Logical_Consistency_Report: Although this process is relatively error free, some error is generated when sediment is caught within the sieves. In order to reduce error caused by lost sediment, sample weights are compared before and after they are sorted. Sorted samples that weigh below 99.0% or above 100.99% of the original sample weight are discarded and not recorded. A fresh sediment sample is taken from the original sample bag in its stead and the process is restarted. Completeness_Report: The data is visually inspected for gross inaccuracies using MS Excel.

Beach profiles are measured by walking with a GPS receiver, GPS antenna, Pacific Crest radio modem and radio antenna mounted to a backpack from the landward edge of the primary dune, over the dune crest, to wading depth at spring low tide. After the beach profile has been collected, a beach surface sediment sample is collected by hand (typically several hundred grams of beach sand) at an approximated mid-beach point that intersects the correspodnig beach profile. Between 2 and 8 beach beach surface sediment samples are collected during any one low tide. This data was collected by: Laura Bauleke, Diana McCandless, Peter Ruggiero, Josh McInnes, Jessica Cote, Dave Thompson, Jamie MacMahan, Brian Voigt, Maarten Buijsman, Guy Gelfenbaum, Rich Daniels, Bob Huxford, Etienne Kingsley, Dawn Harpel, Sarah Haque, Dylan Monahan, Emily Lindstrum, Troy Warnick, Peter Wald, Renee Shadel, George Kaminsky. Process_Step: Process_Description: Due to a limited amount of processing time, the mid beach sediment samples are the only samples collected (Summer 2002 on) and processed consistently. Sediment samples are taken to a sediment lab where sand grain size distributions are determined using American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) approved dry sieves at quarter-phi intervals following current EPA protocols for sediment analysis in the state of Washington (Tetra Tech Inc., 1986). Process_Step: Process_Description: Sediment samples are emptied into Gilson Model No. SC-152 9x9 inch metal drying pans and placed into a Quincy Lab Inc. Model 40 GC lab oven set at a temperature of 90 C (200 F). Samples are allowed to dry for 24hrs upon which they are placed into labeled plastic bags and stored until sorting. Process_Step: Process_Description: Before sorting, sample sizes are reduced to a target weight between 50 and 100 grams. Sediment samples are passed through a Sepor Inc. sediment splitter in order to reduce sample weight without adding bias to the process. Process_Step: Process_Description: Split samples of target weight are poured into a stack of A.S.T.M. E-11 Specification U.S.A. Standard Testing Sieves and placed into a W. S. Tyler Model R x 29 Ro-Tap for 15 minutes. The Ro-Tap agitates the samples, sorting the sediment into its respective sieve size. Once sorting is complete, the sieve stack is dismantled and sediment on each sieve is collected, weighed and entered into the spreadsheet column corresponding with sieve size. Process_Step: Process_Description: Finally, all data is save in an Excel spreadsheet to facilitate use of these data with a wide variety of software packages.
