在密苏里州圣路易斯和洛杉矶唐纳森维尔之间的密西西比河上,为25个站点开发了具体的测量记录。对密西西比河这些记录的生成和初步检查表明,整个河流系统复杂的形态调整至少发生了一个世纪,并表明这些调整一直持续到今天。此外,尽管在本研究中没有尝试对本文报告的初步评估中众多自然和人为因素对河流形态趋势的影响进行详细分析,但对具体测量记录的初步评估表明,它们提供了一个强大的框架,当与其他地貌评估工具相结合时,将有助于理解和解释驱动密西西比河的复杂形态过程。这些和其他综合分析计划将用于未来密西西比河地貌和地貌项目的工作。免责声明:本报告的内容不得用于广告、出版或促销目的。引用商品名称并不构成官方认可或批准使用此类商业产品。所有引用的产品名称和商标均为其各自所有者的财产。除非其他授权文件另有规定,本报告的调查结果不应被解释为陆军部的正式立场。当不再需要这份报告时,请将其销毁。不要退还给发信人。MRG&P第10号报告
Specific gage records were developed for 25 stations on the Mississippi River between St. Louis, MO, and Donaldsonville, LA. Generation and initial inspection of these records for the Mississippi River establish that complex morphologic adjustments have occurred throughout the river system for at least a century and indicate that these adjustments continue to the present day. Further, although no attempt was made in this study to conduct a detailed analysis of the effects of the numerous natural and anthropogenic factors on the morphologic trends in the river in the initial assessment reported herein, preliminary evaluation of the specific gage records demonstrates that they provide a powerful framework that, when combined with other geomorphic assessment tools, will aid in understanding and explaining the complex morphological processes that drive the Mississippi River. These and other comprehensive analyses are planned for future Mississippi River Geomorphology & Potamology Program efforts.
