A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
Sediment derived from construction in areas of urban growth has profound impact on downstream channels and water resources; such sediment pollution is usually much more dynamic and intense than sediment derived from rural areas; some needed soil and stream channel research can be accomplished in laboratories, but much needs to be done on small areas at construction sites; although many urban research methods can be adapted from related rural programs, consideration must be given to fact that extent and location of exposed subsoils in drainage basin will change rapidly and that extremely high and variable sediment loads will be imposed upon stream channels.
