Densimetric 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 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...
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 کاملA model of suspended sediment transport by internal tides
The ability of internal tides to resuspend and advect sediment over continental shelfs and slope regions is investigated by applying an internal wave and sediment transport model. Numerical experiments are carried out, firstly, with the ratio of bathymetry and internal waves characteristics creating critical, subcritical, and supercritical conditions, and secondly, for an observed section of th...
متن کاملInvestigation of suspended sediment transport using ultrasonic techniques
The results of the initial experimental studies involving the scattering of ultrasonic signals from canonical and nonanonical shaped suspended particles with known elastical qualities are reported. These results have formed the basis for the development of a numerical model for ultrasound propagation through low-concentration suspensions of sand particles.
