Notes
- Summarizes work to date in developing a reference model for natural equilibrium channel geometry in Puget Sound tidal marsh (with a focus on river delta]]
- Indicates that channels across Puget Sound scale well to tidal marsh area.
- Suggests that increased tidal range increases channel density.
- Suggests that larger sites may provide a non-linear increase in channel length, suggesting that large restoration efforts are more ecologically and economically efficient in providing fish benefit.
