Evolution and timing of suspended-sediment transport following the 1980 Mount St. Helens eruption: IN: Sediment: Monitoring, Modeling, and Managing: Proceedings of 7th Federal Interagency Sedimentation Conference, Reno, NV, March 25-29, 2001, p. I-137 to I-144.

Continuous monitoring of streamflow and suspended-sediment discharges from disturbed basins following the catastrophic 1980 eruption of Mount St. Helens reveals when, and under what conditions, sediment redistribution occurs following a major landscape disturbance. The redistributed sediment includes material deposited by the eruption as well as centuries-old sediment that has been remobilized from storage. -- Major, 2001
