Turbidity Monitoring

OSI has monitored turbidity levels for a variety of projects including underwater cable burial, dredging operations, river modeling projects, and environmental assessment.

OSI uses a variety of instrumentation and methods to measure turbidity including CTD-mounted optical backscatter, In-situ sonde mounted optical backscatter and ADCP acoustic backscatter. The data collected from these instruments are calibrated using water samples taken during the survey to provide a site-specific relationship between backscatter measurements and in situ concentrations.
