Monitoring fresh water resources
Abstract
The author has identified the following significant results. ERTS-1 imagery is promising to be very useful for studying reservoir turbidity patterns. Initial coverage indicates a strong qualitative correlation between film density and turbidity. With repeated coverage and sampling the possibility of developing a reliable quantitative correlation looks good. The question of distinguishing between organic and inorganic suspended loads in Kansas reservoirs is open, but will require considerable more work to answer.
