Serving Waynesboro, Augusta County & the Shenandoah Valley

Slide presentation by Jim Pizzuto (Univ. of Delaware) describing South River geomorphology and its influence on mercury cycling. Identifies the river as a gravel-bed bedrock channel, characterizes sediment sources and storage (bank erosion, fine-grained channel margin deposits, floodplain HRADs, channel bed), highlights historical mercury release (c. 1930–1950) and slow transport leading to long-term persistent mercury reservoirs.
