The 1935 images were obtained as digitally scanned versions of aerial photographs acquired by the U.S. Department of Agriculture at a scale of 1:31,680. The actual date of image acquisition is not known. The images were previously scanned at 600 dpi to produce a nominal pixel size of 1.28 m (Friedman et al., 2015). The images were registered and rectified using identifiable common points from the 1996 DOQQs. See description of positional accuracy below. Data derived from features mapped from the 1935 images were presented in: Friedman, J.M., Vincent, K.R., Griffin, E.R., Scott, M.L., Shafroth, P.B., and Auble, G.T., 2015, Processes of arroyo filling in northern New Mexico, USA, GSA Bulletin, 127(3/4), 621-640....

The 1970s images were obtained as digital scans on CDs, with no metadata. Source information for the original aerial photographs is not available. Original photo scale was about 1:40,000 for the 1975 images (filenames beginning "r75")and 1:12,000 for the 1979 images (filenames beginning "rfl"). I registered and rectified these images using identifiable common points from 1996 DOQQs. See the description of positional accuracy below. Data derived from features mapped from the 1970s images were presented in: Friedman, J.M., Vincent, K.R., Griffin, E.R., Scott, M.L., Shafroth, P.B., and Auble, G.T., 2015, Processes of arroyo filling in northern New Mexico, USA, GSA Bulletin, 127(3/4), 621-640. doi: 10.1130/B31046.1

1996 georeferenced aerial photographs cover the lower Rio Puerco from the confluence with the Rio San Jose 70 km down-valley to the confluence with the Rio Grande. The images were obtained from enlargements of 1:40,000 scale National Aerial Photography Program (NAPP) photographs printed from negatives at a scale of 1:5,000, then scanned at 600 dpi. Pixel size of the raster images is about 0.22 m, compared to the DOQQs, which have 1-m pixel size. The segments were registered and rectified in ArcINFO using common points from USGS DOQQs published in 1999, which were derived from the same 1996 NAPP photo set, with terrain corrections from a 1-degree DEM applied. Registration points were typically center of mass of small...

Predicting the outcome of flow and sediment transport events quantitatively has been difficult due to the complex nature of stream systems and the effects of woody vegetation on flow and sediment transport. Interactions between channel and floodplain flow, sediment transport, and woody vegetation have important implications for the health of riparian vegetation and as well as for contaminant transport and deposition. The goal of my research is to develop methods for the application and testing of predictive, process-based models (no empirically adjusted coefficients) that compute the flow and sediment transport from fluid mechanical theory for (1) known channel and floodplain topography and (2) measured tree and...

Geomorphic features mapped from historical aerial photographs (1935, 1950s, 1970s, and 1996), satellite imagery (November 2006), and digital aerial imagery (Standard Imagery LiDAR Composite; Spectrum Mapping, LLC, 2005) are provided in shapefiles for each year of data. Features mapped are tops of the arroyo walls, edges of the arroyo bottom (covering the active floodplain and channel), tops of channel banks, the channel centerline, canopy cover, and 2006 flood sand deposits. In addition, shapefiles containing a reference arroyo centerline, points at 0.5-km intervals along the arroyo centerline, and polygons identifying the 0.5-km arroyo segments are provided. Individual metadata files describe the contents of each...
