This is a simple description. For detailed explanations see articles: Laser Diffraction-101 and -201. Particle Size Distribution (PSD) is a multi-parameter description of how the total concentration of particles is distributed into many size fractions....
Last updated: 11 May 2016 Turbidity as a surrogate for suspended sediment concentration (SSC) is commonly used and deeply established in practice. The shortcomings of turbidity as a surrogate for SSC are: The calibration changes with grain size; The...
Scintillation is what makes stars twinkle. It is what causes mirage in deserts or on hot surfaces. It is what causes shimmer underwater in the vicinity of hot vents in oceans. These effects result from temperature fluctuations in air or water. The same...
How to Compute the Mean Particle Diameter from a LISST Volume Distribution [Sequoia, March 26, 2010] In the table below, the computation of the mean particle size from a LISST volume distribution is outlined.Column A is the size class...
Yes. The files called factory_zsc_xxxx.asc, ringarea_xxxx.asc (where xxxx is the serial number) are instrument specific. Also the files InstrumentData.txt and LISST.ini contains instrument specific information, but these two files can contain information...
