An inexpensive and compact underwater digital camera imaging system was developed to
collect in situ high resolution images of flocculated suspended sediment at depths of up to …

Abstract The abundance of Transparent Exopolymer Particles (TEP) was determined on a
seasonal basis (autumn, spring and summer) along a north-south transect in the NE Aegean …

The LISST-VSF and LISST-200X are commercial instruments made available in recent
years, enabling underwater measurements of the volume scattering function, which has not …

Suspended particulate matters (SPM) in coastal waters were investigated with an approach
combining suspended particulate matter concentrations (SPMCs) measured by an optical …

In this work a high-magnification digital video camera in combination with a settling column
is used to study in a first part the influence of the amount of flocs transferred into the settling …

The accurate initial background of the high heterogeneity of particle size distributions
(PSDs) is crucial for modeling the carbon cycle across the continental shelf. However, the …

Floc size distribution and settling velocities are crucial parameters for characterising
cohesive sediments, as they influence how these sediments behave in various …

Abstract The NE Aegean Sea constitutes a challenging sector of the world ocean in studying
optical and biogeochemical properties and processes due to a dynamic frontal regime …

The study of particle size distribution (PSD) gives insights on the dynamics of distinct pools
of particles in the ocean, which reflect the functioning of the marine ecosystem and the …

Optical surveys of aquatic particles and their particle size spectra have become important
tools in studies of light propagation in water, classification of water masses, and the …
