Preliminary evidence of active bed transport at the Cornfield Shoals Disposal Site (CSDS) prompted the National Marine Fisheries Service and Connecticut Department of Environmental Protection to express concern about possible sediment transport towards, and impact on, shellfish beds located north of the site, north of Long Sand Shoal. This preliminary study was designed to determine if the field-observed transport at the disposal site is consistent with the predicted east-west transport pattern found in the historical record. This investigation at CSDS between July 1991 and May 1992 provided strong circumstantial evidence for active bed transport. his study included a series of bathymetric surveys, current meter suspended sediment data collection, and REMOTS(R) photography of the sediment-water interface. The circumstantial evidence for active bed transport included shifts in areas of sediment accumulation and erosion, increased suspended sediment deposits at the sediment-water interface. In general, active bed transport appears to follow the historical east-west current direction, and the extent of the transport depends on the type of material. The actual direction and magnitude of active bed transport apparently depend on local topography and the nature of materials being transported. Sediment accumulated over a broad area near the disposal points of sand hydraulically dredged from the Connecticut River in September 1991. Subsequent bathymetric surveys showed apparent movement of this material to the west. A clearly defined deposit formed at the disposal point for fine-grained material mechanically dredged from North Cove, Connecticut.
Praise for How Learning Works "How Learning Works is the perfect title for this excellent book. Drawing upon new research in psychology, education, and cognitive science, the authors have demystified a complex topic into clear explanations of seven powerful learning principles. Full of great ideas and practical suggestions, all based on solid research evidence, this book is essential reading for instructors at all levels who wish to improve their students' learning." —Barbara Gross Davis, assistant vice chancellor for educational development, University of California, Berkeley, and author, Tools for Teaching "This book is a must-read for every instructor, new or experienced. Although I have been teaching for almost thirty years, as I read this book I found myself resonating with many of its ideas, and I discovered new ways of thinking about teaching." —Eugenia T. Paulus, professor of chemistry, North Hennepin Community College, and 2008 U.S. Community Colleges Professor of the Year from The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching and the Council for Advancement and Support of Education "Thank you Carnegie Mellon for making accessible what has previously been inaccessible to those of us who are not learning scientists. Your focus on the essence of learning combined with concrete examples of the daily challenges of teaching and clear tactical strategies for faculty to consider is a welcome work. I will recommend this book to all my colleagues." —Catherine M. Casserly, senior partner, The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching "As you read about each of the seven basic learning principles in this book, you will find advice that is grounded in learning theory, based on research evidence, relevant to college teaching, and easy to understand. The authors have extensive knowledge and experience in applying the science of learning to college teaching, and they graciously share it with you in this organized and readable book." —From the Foreword by Richard E. Mayer, professor of psychology, University of California, Santa Barbara; coauthor, e-Learning and the Science of Instruction; and author, Multimedia Learning
