In situ continuous measurement of of suspended sediment concentrations at several stations in the Zeeschelde. more
Various monitoring programs (MONEOS, OMES) are being implemented along the Scheldt estuary to build up system knowledge and provide advice to administrators. Within these monitoring programs, the HIC measures numerous water quality parameters that increase insight into the physical, ecological and chemical functioning of the estuary. The measurements are carried out in the estuary itself, as well as at the edges of the system. Scope Themes: Coastal studies (e.g. shores, estuaries), Water composition > Suspended matter - turbidity Keywords: Fresh water · Brackish water · In situ instrument data · Zeeschelde Geographical coverage Zeeschelde Stations
