Abstract
Suspended sediments are thought to be an important transport mechanism for toxic trace metals that have been identified in the Clark Fork. Hydrologic data from a network of water-quality stations combined with data simulation will be used to calculate suspended-sediment and trace-metals transport. An ultimate goal of such an investigation might be the development of a predictive model.
