Towards an establishment of a rating curve for suspended sediment transport by means of ADCP measurements

This study presents a series of acoustic current Doppler profiler (ADCP) measurements, which are converted into suspended load concentrations (SSC). Depending on the particle size distribution (PSD), the sound backscatter and its attenuation are used to determine a theoretical minimal and physical u...
