Estimating Suspended Sediment Concentration in Streams by Diffuse Light Attenuation
A light attenuation sensor system (LASS) for measurements in waters is described in this paper. The LASS records irradiance at multiple levels in the water column to provide a measure of the diffuse light attenuation coefficient which is strongly affected by suspended sediment. Dimensional analysis and geometric optical theory are used to relate the irradiance attenuation to sediment properties...
متن کاملDensimetric Monitoring of Suspended-sediment Concentrations, Northeastern Georgia
Differential pressure transducers can be used to monitor the suspended-sediment concentration in a water column. Suspended sediments with densities greater than water increase the fluid density, which is determined by measuring the fluid pressure change between two depths. Lewis and Rasmussen (1999) used a densimetric technique under controlled conditions to determine suspended-sediment concent...
متن کاملSpatio-Temporal Variation of Suspended Sediment Concentration at Downstream of a Sand Mine
The growing population led to greater human need to use natural resources such as sand and gravel mines. Direct removal of sands from the bed river leads to increase suspended sediment concentrations in downstream of harvested area and creates other problems viz. filling reservoirs, change in hydraulic characteristics of the channel and environmental damages. However, the range of temporal and ...
متن کاملMonitoring baseline suspended sediment in forested basins: the effects of sampling on suspended sediment rating curves
Rating curves are widely used for directly assessing changes in the suspended sediment delivery process and indirectly for estimating total yields. Four sampling methods were simulated over a 31-day record of suspended sediment from the North Fork of the Mad River near Korbel, California. The position and size of the four groups of plotted slope/intercept pairs indicated differences in bias and...
متن کاملSystematic Sampling for Suspended Sediment
Because of high costs or complex logistics, scientific populations cannot be measured entirely and must be sampled. Accepted scientific practice holds that sample selection be based on statistical principles to assure objectivity when estimating totals and variances. Probability sampling--obtaining samples with known probabilities--is the only method that assures these results. However, probabi...
