Color infrared photography and thermal infrared imagery were obtained which covered the river and a strip of the flood plain approximately 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 miles wide. Inflows and contributing sources of sediment from tributaries, ditches, and gullies to the Clarks Fork Yellowstone River were located and identified. Results of the study indicate that aerial color infrared photography and thermal infrared imagery are practical tools for locating and identifying inflow of sediment laden water to a river system.technical reportsengCopyright and other restrictions may apply.
