Detailed Description
A representative section of the digital elevation model of difference (DoD). Areas with changes in elevation greater than thethreshold of detection (0.50 m) but less than 2 m are shown in light red (erosion) and light blue (aggradation). Changes in elevation greater than2 m are shown in intense red (erosion) and blue (aggradation). Yellow and green dots show the thalweg location of Rito de los Frijoles, New Mexico in 2010 and 2016. From Friedman and others (2024). Thalwegs are the points of lowest elevation within a waterway.
