Measuring Suspended Sediment in Small Mountain Streams
The Author: ROBERT B. THOMAS is a mathematical statistician assigned to the Station's research unit studying the management of Pacific Coastal forests on unstable lands, and is stationed in Arcata, California. He earned a bachelor's degree in mathematics at California State University, Hayward (1967) and a master's degree in statistics at the University of California, Berkeley (1971). He joined...
متن کاملEstimating 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 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 کاملSuspended sediment and sediment-associated contaminants in San Francisco Bay.
Water-quality managers desire information on the temporal and spatial variability of contaminant concentrations and the magnitudes of watershed and bed-sediment loads in San Francisco Bay. To help provide this information, the Regional Monitoring Program for Trace Substances in the San Francisco Estuary (RMP) takes advantage of the association of many contaminants with sediment particles by con...
متن کاملPresent and Reference Concentrations and Yields of Suspended Sediment in Streams in the Great Lakes Region and Adjacent Areas Present and Reference Concentrations and Yields of Suspended Sediment in Streams in the Great Lakes Region and Adjacent Areas
In-stream suspended sediment and siltation and downstream sedimentation are common problems in surface waters throughout the United States. The most effective way to improve surface waters impaired by sediments is to reduce the contributions from human activities rather than try to reduce loadings from natural sources. Total suspended sediment/solids (TSS) concentration data were obtained from ...
