Summary
Hand-carried frequency domain electromagnetic imaging (EMI) data were collected along the Sanuit River to indicate changes in streambed water quality and/or near surface sediments. These data are to be used in conjunction with fiber-optic distributed temperature sensing (FO-DTS) and ground penetrating radar (GPR) data. The combined dataset represents point in time mapping of preferential groundwater discharge points (FO-DTS), and the bed structure that controls where these points are located (GPR, EMI).

Purpose
The primary purpose of data collection is to distinguish zones of groundwater/surface water exchange along the Santuit River. This information is intended to assist the Massachusetts Division of Fisheries and Wildlife and the Mashpee Wompanoag Tribe in ongoing studies and management of native brook trout populations.
