As cities grow and landscapes transform, the effects of urbanization ripple far beyond skylines and traffic patterns. An often overlooked consequence is the increase in suspended sediment concentration in nearby rivers, lakes, and coastal waters. This...
When we think of pollution in our rivers, lakes, or oceans, we often picture oil slicks or floating plastic bottles. But suspended sediment is an important agent that must not be overlooked. Suspended sediment can act like a vehicle for pollutants, carrying...
Sequoia’s LISST-Portable|XR is widely used to analyze suspended sediment concentration (SSC) and particle size distribution (PSD) in various aquatic environments. It has been employed in laboratory and field studies, sedimentology, geomorphology, water...
Sequoia’s LISST-Portable|XR laser diffraction particle size analyzer has significantly advanced research in hydropower and sediment management by providing precise measurements of suspended sediment concentration (SSC) and particle size distribution...
…Wherein we’ll learn about the LISST-Portable, and the first Particles in Europe (PiE) conference. (Part VII can be found here: https://www.sequoiasci.com/article/the-history-of-sequoia-part-vii/) Way back in the early 2000’s Chuck had an idea for...
