Seasonal variation of suspended sediment and its relationship with turbidity in Cam - Nam Trieu estuary, Hai Phong (Vietnam)
Seasonal variation of suspended sediment and its relationship with turbidity in Cam - Nam Trieu estuary, Hai Phong (Vietnam)
The coefficients of determination varied from 0.867 to 0.971 (linear relationship), and from 0.95 to 0.991 (proportional relationship). Therefore, turbidity can be used to estimate SPM concentration. However, this relationship changed markedly with the seasons, and hence when determining SPM concentration, seasonal factors must be considered.
