Summary

These data are derived from four lidar surveys: one airborne survey in 2006 and three terrestrial surveys in 2016, 2017, and 2018. These surveys were used to generate better quantitative understanding of changes associated with fluvial system process along the reach of the Tuolumne River as it traverses Tuolumne Meadows. This research was performed to provide science for decision support as the National Park Service makes restoration and management decisions in accordance with the Tuolumne Wild and Scenic River Final Comprehensive Management Plan.
