River’s Habitual Being
On June 19th we took a cross section of the stream that fed into the lake. It was clear water and was surrounded by tundra. Much of the rocks in the river were an average of 6 on the Wentworth’s scale of substrate (smaller than my fist). The average depth of this section of the river was 21 cm. The average velocity of the river’s current was 0.53 m/s. The total discharge of the river was around 0.897 meters cubed per second.
