USGS Hudson River Watershed Suspended-Sediment Monitoring Network
Suspended-Sediment Monitoring Network
Cohoes Falls during Tropical Storm Irene 2011
The USGS NY Water Science Center maintains a network of near-real-time sensors to monitor the movement of suspended sediment into and through the freshwater reach of the tidal Hudson River. Information from this network helps quantify the movement of sediment in the watershed to assist resource managers and stakeholders reduce dredging costs, target resources to mitigate soil loss, and modify land use practices and behavior that result in sediment-related damage to the ecosystem.
