Compilation of geomorphic measurements for Turtle Creek in Union County, Pennsylvania
This data release is a compilation of geomorphic measurements from nine sites along Turtle Creek in Union County, Pennsylvania within the Chesapeake Bay watershed. Datasets include surveyed geomorphic features along the longitudinal profile and five equally spaced cross sections at each site. Additionally, separate datasets are provided containing detailed geomorphic measurements of streambank erosion (pin exposure), floodplain deposition (pad accretion), stream particle size distribution (pebble counts), and soil bulk density (with nutrients, organic and mineral content at select sites).
