On October 17, 2022 the University of Washington Puget Sound Institute hosted a workshop on Sediment Exchange. This was a smaller, technical discussion about nutrient-related sediment exchange fluxes with the water column. Dr. David Shull shared insights from both historical and more recent monitoring. Then the discussion turned to how sediment exchange is represented in models, specifically LiveOcean and the Salish Sea Model, with experts like Dr. Parker MacCready. The group reflected on some proposed modeling analysis, preliminary results, and how to refine our understanding of when and where sediment has an important impact on nitrogen cycling and low dissolved oxygen impacts.
