Determining how much gravel can be mined from Redwood Creek (Redwood National Park, California) involves establishing the quantity of sand and gravel the river transports past the mining area, and the annual replacement amount. The paper lists a number of damaging effects of mining more than the replacement volume. It also briefly describes 10 methods for measuring or estimating bedload transport.
