A multiple case study for calibrating acoustic backscatter to total suspended material in a large river system

<p>Sediment transport measurements are determined using techniques such as bedmaterial and suspended-sediment sampling, and more recently the conversion of acoustic backscatter (ABS). Acoustic waves scatter and attenuate while passing through a watersediment mixture and the backscatter is conv...
