18、al, engineering, and agricultural problems. Success in managing and solving sedimentation problems requires comprehensive knowledge of sediment movement. This requires reliable methods of estimation of sediment load with high-quality data. The amount of sediment transport data being collected, howev

19、er, has steadily declined in recent decades largely due to difficulty and costs associated with field methods used for data collection. High temporal resolution data of high quality are needed to better understand and more adequately describe many sedimentation processes.The bed load and suspended l

20、oad broadly constitute total sediment load. However, the scope of this International Standard is confined to the measurement of suspended sediment. Conventional methods for measurement of suspended sediment concentrations in streams rely on the principle of collecting samples of water-sediment mixtu

21、re at various points in time and space using suitable sampling equipment and deployment methods and analysing the samples in laboratory for estimating the sediment concentration. These methods are labour intensive, expensive and can be hazardous. Moreover, the accuracy of these methods in estimating

22、 the sediment concentration of rivers and streams over a period of time may not be dependable due to the large spatial and temporal variability associated with the transport of suspended sediment.Continuous and accurate estimation of suspended sediment concentration is essential in certain situation

23、s such as:a) in hydropower projects for the safety of the turbines and other machinery, reservoir silting and flushing;b) water-supply projects for monitoring water quality;c) storm water run-off from urban areas;d) silting of wetlands; ande) long-term monitoring of sediment transport in rivers and

24、streams, in order to obtain reliable base lines that can be used for decision making.In such situations, automatic and cost-effective techniques are essential to collect high-quality data on suspended sediment concentrations and particle sizes.Recent technological advances in the fields of optics an

25、d acoustics have provided new sediment-surrogate technologies and methods to determine suspended sediment fluxes and characteristics. Some of these methods can be used to measure suspended sediment concentration at higher resolution, with greater automation and potentially lower cost than traditiona

26、l methods. These methods involve surrogate technologies that derive the suspended sediment concentration from measurements of optical backscatter, laser diffraction and acoustic backscatter.The measurement of suspended sediment concentration (SSC) in the water samples can be carried out with the hel

27、p of nephelometry, transmission, laser diffraction and acoustic back scatter techniques. The working principles, applications, advantages and disadvantages, limitations and usable instruments of the above techniques are elaborated in this International Standard. The optical backscatter technique is

28、readily available and relatively inexpensive. Optical backscatter sensor sensitivity depends on grain size, colour and composition. The advantages are small size and small sample volume, linear and high frequency response, insensitive to ambient light, large measuring range and low cost. The laser d

29、iffraction (LD) technique is also readily available and cost effective. The acoustic backscatter is another technique for measurement of SSC in the aquatic ecosystems. Measurements are possible for a range of sediment sizes that is dependent on the acoustic frequency. The available maximum sampling

30、depth will be limited at high concentrations.

The measuring principles for the above surrogate techniques are similar and can be classified in three c

40、ategories as described in 4.1 to 4.4 (see Figure 1).4.1 TransmissionThe source and detector are placed opposite to each other at a distance l as shown in Figure 1 A. The source emits a collimated light beam with intensity lo. The sediment particles in the measuring volume reduce the beam intensity b

41、y absorption and scattering resulting in a reduced detector signal. The relationship between the detector signal (lt) and the sediment concentration (c) is described by Beers Law43and is given by Formula (1):l=lekclto(1)whereltis the transmitted light through a sample of length l in water of sedimen

42、t concentration c;lois the incident intensity of the emitter source;k is a constant depending on the sediment, water, and instrument characteristics.4.2 ScatteringThe source and detector are placed at an angle relative to each other shown in Figure 1 B. The detector receives a part of the radiation

43、scattered by the sediment particles in the measuring volume. The relationship between detector signal (ls) and sediment concentration (c) is given by Formula (2):l=klcekcs3o2(2)wherelois the incident intensity of the emitter source;k2is a constant depending on the sediment, water, and instrument cha

44、racteristics;k3is a calibration coefficient depending on instrument geometry, particle properties (size distribution, shape, index of refraction or composition), optical /acoustic wave length and travel distance (l).NOTE Often, the distance l cannot be defined in optical backscatter type systems.An

45、important limitation of the scattering method is the strong nonlinearity of the relation between the detector signal and sediment concentration for large concentrations. Even in low concentrations where the response is linear, the output depends strongly on grain size and colour. For instance, colou

46、r alone may change the calibration by a factor of 10 for higher concentration37and the grain size may cause an additional change in calibration. For example, the calibration is shown to change by a factor of 20 between a white 5 m sediment and a grey 10 m sediment. As such, changes in sediment prope

47、rties are not uncommon in nature, which are generally not known during the course of monitoring. Spot calibration from samples is likely to be contaminated by unknown errors when sediment properties change in space/time. The errors can reach several hundred percent and greater. However, the use of l

48、aser sensors is able to overcome these errors to great extent.2 ISO 2014 All rights reservedBS ISO 11657:2014ISO 11657:2014(E)4.3 Transmission ScatteringThis method is based on the combination of transmission and scattering, as shown in Figure 1 C.Key1 source 4 detector2 detector 5 detector3 measuri

Diffracted light can produce fringes of light, dark or coloured bands.
