Abstract:

Establishing and operating a harmonised sediment monitoring system along large rivers such as the Danube is a challenging international task. Our objective is to develop a time- and cost-effective suspended sediment measurement protocol that can be easily carried out in the Up- per-Hungarian Danube. In this study, we present the results of the comprehensive testing of direct and indirect (acoustic and optical) suspended sediment analysis methods, during which, we established moderate to strong relationships between the determined suspended sediment.
