Turbidity Based on Sediment Characteristics for Southeastern U.S. Soils

John C. Hayes, E. E. Godbold, B. J. Barfield

Abstract

Elevated suspended sediment levels in surface water bodies result in increased turbidity for the water body.This paper develops relationships between soil types, concentrations, and soil combinations with correspondingturbidity levels. Development of a distinct relationship for total suspended sediment and turbidity hasapplications for erosion prevention and sediment control modeling.
