Caption: This chart shows the percent of total sediment volume resulting from landslides in the Upper Trinity River Planning Watershed. Landslide data are limited to only part of entire watershed. Landslides are categorized by land use associations that include categories of road, harvest, or forest. Road and harvest landslides are considered management related. Forest slides were identified in non-managed areas. The total sediment production has increased from 1979 to 2000. Road related slide volumes have decreased; however, harvest and forest sediment production have increased. Harvest related slide volumes yielded 50% of the total in 2000. Data are from Graham Matthews and Associated Trinity River Sediment Source Analysis (2001). See Info Links for more information.
