Modeling Near-Surface Suspended Sediment Concentration in the English Channel
The present study investigates the performances of the three-dimensional multicomponent hydro-sedimentary model ROMS (Regional Ocean Modeling System) to predict near-surface suspended sediment concentrations (SSC) in the English Channel (western Europe). Predictions are assessed against satellite-retrieved observations from raw MODIS and MERIS images for the year 2008 characterized by the highe...
متن کاملRemote Sensing of Tidal Situation by Monitoring Changes in Suspended Sediment Concentration in Surface Waters
Collecting information on suspended sediments concentration (SSC) in coastal waters and estuaries is vital for proper management of coastal environments. Traditionally, SSC used to be measured by time consuming and costly point measurements. This method allows the accurate measurement of SSC only for a point in space and time. Remote sensing from air-borne and space-borne sensors have proved to...
متن کاملUsing Artificial Neural Networks for Modeling Suspended Sediment Concentration
For continuous monitoring of river water quality , this study assesses the potential of using artificial neural networks (ANNs) for modeling the event-based suspended sediments concentration (SSC) in Jiasian diversion weir in southern Taiwan. The hourly data collected include the water discharge, turbidity and SSC during the storm events. The feed forward backpropagation network (BP), generaliz...
متن کاملParameterization of Time-Averaged Suspended Sediment Concentration in the Nearshore
To quantify the effect of wave breaking turbulence on sediment transport in the nearshore, the vertical distribution of time-averaged suspended sediment concentration (SSC) in the surf zone was parameterized in terms of the turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) at different cross-shore locations, including the bar crest, bar trough, and inner surf zone. Using data from a large-scale laboratory experim...
متن کاملEstablishing the Relationship between Turbidity and Total Suspended Sediment Concentration
This laboratory work examines the relationship between turbidity (NTU) and total suspended sediment concentration (TSS, mg/L) for a Cecil Ap soil, a common Southeastern Piedmont soil type. We show a 1:1 correlation between NTU and TSS for the silt and clay fractions, but a smaller ratio for clay and bulk-soil samples. These results suggest that NTU measurements can be used to estimate sediment ...
