Sediment flux from the watershed was evaluated based on river discharge, hydroclimatic patterns, and harvest records in the basin. While previously logging has been assumed to have a great impact on sediment accumulation, and while there has been a change in the amount of harvest in the watershed, it appears that logging impacts are buffered within the watershed, minimizing their effect..."
