Remote sensing of turbidity plumes in Lake Ontario

Preliminary analyses of ERTS-1 imagery demonstrates the utility of the satellite to monitor turbidity plumes generated by the Welland Canal, and the Genese and Oswego Rivers. Although visible in high altitude photographs, the Niagara River plume is not readily identifiable from satellite imagery.

The Clark Lake array.

A fully steerable array of 720 conical log spiral antennas nearing completion in southern California is described. It is capable of operation at any frequency between 15 and 130 MHz an instantaneous bandwidth of 3 MHz. The array is a pencil-beam instrument with a beam width proportional to the wavelength; it varies from 3 to 27 feet across the frequency range. It will soon be available for both solar and sidereal studies.

Dynamics of suspended sediment plumes in Lake Ontario

The author has identified the following significant results. Imagery obtained on 25 January 1974, shows a well-defined plume at the mouth of the Niagara River and a much smaller but intense plume emanating from Port Dalhousie Harbor, Ontario. Additionally, a plume can be seen trailing eastward from the outer end of the Welland Canal. This is the first time that a clear-cut winter view of these plumes was detected by the ERTS-1 satellite outside the navigation season. Since the Welland Canal was not in operation, it is likely that the plume, visible along the canal's outer jetty on frames 1551-15313-4-5, was the result of westward moving turbid water emanating from Port Dalhousie Harbor to the west.
