This University of Delaware presentation (April 2008) summarizes geomorphologic investigations of the South River, focusing on fine-grained channel-margin (FGCM) deposits and mercury (Hg). It reports that ~75% of Hg in FGCM deposits dates to 1929–1950, shows exponential downstream decline of Hg in eroding banks, proposes mechanisms for the downstream "hump," and presents preliminary LIDAR erosion and Hg-loading estimates.
