This July 2009 slide presentation provides estimates of contemporary mercury (Hg) loading to the South River from eroding banks between Waynesboro and Port Republic. It describes bank classification, Hg concentration datasets, erosion-rate estimation methods (aerial-photo analysis, hydrodynamic modelling, tripod LIDAR), conversions to mass, and implications for targeted bank stabilization to reduce Hg loading.
