WAMSI 2 - Dredging Node 3.2.1 - Plume Characteristics (Field) - Field Trip 3
Plume Characterization: The key objectives of Project 3.2: (1) Characterize the physical/optical properties of sediment suspensions; (2) Map the dredge-generated plume; (3) Provide data to optimize and validate plume modelling; (5) Assess the spatial and temporal variability (~10 years) of background suspended sediment loads using archived remote sensing data; (6) To estimate the benthic light field with respect to TSS;
A voyage of opportunity as part of an AIMS field trip in Jun 2015, collected data from 3rd - 13th July 2015 using RV Solander (AIMS).
